(Ørestad) Ørestads Boulevard The Mountain Dwellings are the second generation of the VM Houses. The program is 2/3 parking and 1/3 living. Rather than doing two separate buildings, it was decided to merge parking and housing into a symbiotic relationship. All apartments have roof gardens facing the sun, amazing views, and parking directly under each unit. Arch. BIG (Bjarke Ingels) Murals: French street artist Victor Ash 2006-08.‹›
