Nordhavn is nothing short of a hot-spot when it comes to modern architecure and design studios. With new marvels like The Silo and Portland Towers together with the UN City, this rather small area is really big on jaw-dropping architecture. Slowly, new design studios and entrepeneurs are also moving into the premises on this new city area, while Danish design giants like Fritz Hansen and Paustian have been residing out here for ages.
