Architectural <strong>Copper</strong> Review | 2005 / 2<br />
<strong>Copper</strong> in Sandefjord’s archipelago in Norway<br />
On one of the islands outside<br />
Sandefjord, construction of a weekend<br />
house by the sea has just been finished.<br />
The house is embedded between the flat<br />
rocks and blends in nicely with the harsh<br />
archipelago landscape on the island. The<br />
roof is strip-covered with green-pati-<br />
nated copper.<br />
When passing the island by boat at a<br />
distance, it is hard to make out the<br />
details on the roof; the green-patinated<br />
22<br />
copper blends in with the low-growing<br />
green vegetation on the island.<br />
Architect firm Kvartal 19 in Sandefjord<br />
has designed the house and Vestfold<br />
Kobber & Blikkenslagerverksted AS, also<br />
from Sandefjord, performed the copper<br />
assembly.<br />
