Daylight creates a bright and pleasant atrium in the new Siemens headquarters

When building their new head office in Denmark, Siemens wanted to take advantage of the latest technologies to create a bright and productive office environment.

One of the central elements of the building design was a full-height atrium, which provides daylight to the interior of the impressive building. The large skylight solution consisting of 228 modular skylights was completed in just 15 days.

  • The skylight solution consists of six rows of Ridgelights 25-40° spanning 17 metres and comprising 228 fixed skylight modules.
  • Shading in the atrium is provided by roller blinds that are automatically controlled according to for instance the position of the sun and the lux levels in the atrium.
  • The building earned LEED Gold certification, the second highest ranking of the LEED rating system.

The display of sustainable solutions has made the Danish Siemens head office a beacon within the Siemens Group.
