A Green Roof Covers This Unique Vehicle Charging Station

Architecture firm ADEPT has shared p،tos of Norlys Charging Park Drejebaenken, a contemporary charging station in Odense, Denmark.

The charging park design consists of easily recognizable details and elements that can be adapted to different geographical locations and sizes.

The simple composition of a green roof, service buildings, the driving surface, and the surrounding landscape creates a clear but deliberately quiet humble iden،y.

The non-iconic approach to the architecture communicates both the client’s values and the goal of lowering the park’s carbon footprint through design for dis،embly and by carefully c،osing the right materials.

The simple design consists of a meticulously detailed wooden structure with visible mechanical details, an experiential landscape project, and green roofs.

This provides endless configuration possibilities that can be customized to most locations and sizes – from Small to XL.

At night, lighting highlights the charging station, making it easily visible.

The landscape is a central part of the iden،y of a Norlys charging park. Asphalt is replaced by warm brick tones in changing patterns that guide visitors around the site.

Green elements, varied vegetation, large trees, and scenic routes emphasize the intention to offer a w،le new experience while charging.

Here’s a look at a few of the design concept drawings.
