Copenhagen Architecture on the Waterfront

Like I mentioned in my previous post, a group of us took a weekend trip to Copenhagen these past few days. While I was taking some of my many tours around the city, I fell in love with the city’s architecture. Copenhagen is famous for its colorful buildings in the wharf, but the same style of building is echoed throughout the entire city on the waterfront. All the colors of the buildings are unique to one another, yet very cohesive. They sport mostly primary colors in reds, yellows, and blues, which as we recently learned, is a very successful color combination. They also are similar in height, approximately 4-5 stories high. The appearance of the buildings is rather simple, but the combination and cohesiveness of them really makes the city look special.
