Tivoli Gardens Amusement Park

Architecture practice, BIG, founded by Bjarke Ingels in 2005 has redesigned the Tivoli Gardens amusement park in Copenhagen to a playful pagoda-like form. The amusement park is named after the Danish author Hans Christian Andersen and will have a whimsical" plant-covered hotel. The 18 storeyed hotels will extend from Tivoli Castle and will all be misaligned and wrapped with plant-filled balconies that nod to the pleasure gardens. The amusement park founded by Georg Carstensen in 1843 is located in central Copenhagen in the style of 19th-century European pleasure gardens and parks.

“With a renovation of 1893 Tivoli Castle and the addition of a new building, we have attempted to capture and accentuate the character of the existing castle, creating a new typology inspired by Tivoli's archetypical architecture. A hybrid between the garden's pagodas, pavilions and towers, our proposal builds a bridge between the city's history and present – the nearby Rundetårn and Axel Towers – as well as the city's archive of unrealised dreams” says BIG's founder Bjarke Ingels.
