SPECIAL ELEMENTS

Carlsberg Bjælker™ has been involved in some unusual projects over the years.

 

Art Museum Aros, Aarhus
The remarkable sun shields (”Brise Soleil”) on the front are 6-metre long, pre-stressed, self-bearing special elements made of red water-struck bricks in Flensburg format, with a surface of square brick tiles with an elevated edge on the back.  

 

The system was introduced in architecture in 1993 by le Corbusier.
