Snack & Learn Webinar: Tåsinge Plads – Copenhagen’s first climate-adapted urban space

This Snack & Learn Webinar is for project managers, planners, engineers, architects and hydrologists. Join us and hear, how Orbicon WSP in collaboration with the City of Copenhagen, GHB Landscape Architects, P. Malmos, Feld & Via Traffic have designed and delivered Tåsinge Plads the first climate adapted urban space in Copenhagen.

Tåsinge Plads is one of more than 300 planned Cloudburst Projects in Copenhagen, designed to manage predicted increases in extreme rainfall events due to climate change, as well as set the scene for urban nature, play and social interaction. Tåsinge Plads (‘plads’ = ‘square’) is located in Sankt Kjelds Kvarter, the City of Copenhagen’s first climate resilient neighbourhood. The square tells the story of a neighbourhood: communicating both the water cycle and the life of an urban community, combining the technical requirements of stormwater management with the neighbourhood’s desire for a green local meeting space.
