The building of a new Museet for Sofart ( Maritime Museum ) in Helsingor, Denmark, represents a remarkable adventure in architecture, civil amd structural engineering. The design by the internationally acclaimed architectural practice Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) is quite unlike any other museum in the world and proved immensely challenging to execute.
Exhibitions by Kossmann. dejong tell the story of Danish maritime history through engaging theatrical presentations. In text, photographs and architectural drawings, this book documents the story of how the museum came to occupy a once-abandoned dry dock.
