Henning Larsen / Train Station Project
Henning Larsen Architects has, in collaboration with an international
team consisting of Tredje Natur, MOE and Railway Procurement Agency, won
Frederikssund municipality’s architecture competition to design a
regional train station and new quarter in the future town of Vinge.
The train station is part of a larger plan to connect the future city to
regional public transit. In the middle of the landscape, a circular
urban space changes organically according to its surroundings. The urban
space and the landscape stretch and meet to span the rails, ensuring
that the railway does not divide the town into two parts.

The fundamental idea for Vinge is to develop a new town where natural
elements are not simply added at the end, but integrated from the
beginning of the town’s development. The new regional train station is
an example of this holistic approach.
The proposal is seamlessly in line with Frederikssund municipality’s
vision for the development of Vinge. The selection committee praised the
winning proposal and expressed how it is “the proposal that best
connects the train station, nature and town structure as one united
whole.”
”We are very happy to be part of the first steps of the development of Vinge by designing the train station and the urban space surrounding it. It is a symbolic strong beginning of a town development. Simply put, our idea is to create an integrated town space that connects the movements of the town and the landscape. In Vinge, the natural landscape becomes part of the town and you will be able to live in the countryside within the town,” explains Niels Edeltoft, architect and project manager at Henning Larsen Architects. Henning Larsen Architects has also created the 370-hectare overall masterplan for the town of Vinge.
