New, centrally located control room for the incineration plant in Roskilde

The new control room has high ceilings and is clad with veneered panels. Together with the rust-red speckled floor linoleum and wood concrete ceiling, it gives the control room a pleasant atmosphere, muted acoustics and good light. In the middle of the large floor, the furniture is designed as a continuous oval that houses all control functions. The surfaces of the oval are mainly linoleum with the same natural material character as the floor and wall panels. Operators move inside the oval and monitor operations on the work screens, wall-mounted monitors and a number of instruments in a special wall panel. Through two large windows there is an overview of the huge waste silo. In a frieze between the walls and ceiling, LED luminaires are placed that let white or blue light trickle down the walls. The white light is used from dusk, through the night and until dawn, softly illuminating the veneer walls. During the daytime, the blue light gives the impression that there is a skylight above the ceiling and is experienced as daylight.
