The Copenhagen suburb of Hvidovre is carrying out a transition of the urban center, which holds administrative functions as well as the old cultural venue, Risbjerggård. The municipality held an architectural competition in 2018 to egnite the major development plan with a new home for the cultural scene of Hvidovre. Vandkunsten won the competition.

With its location in the heart of the urban center of Hvidovre, it is the purpose for the cultural center to connect, strengthen and intensify the Hvidovre’s already existing qualities such as the strong community of locals and of the municipal activities. It is the ambition to strengthen the connection with the public institutions such as the library, the town hall across the street, and that the design of the outdoor spaces becomes an active part of this development.
