Hey, I know this is really random but I'm an international student who's going to apply for this school in a few months. Could u give an insight of how this school was like for someone who looks forward to completing A levels from here and then going for college/university in the US or UK?
@@filmplusdk No, I'm not a student there. I just watched the video and a few photos of the school. I'm not saying that the building doesn't have any visual merits, but if we see buildings as mirrors reflecting ourselves, I think this mirror shows a cold technocrat, who places intellect, efficiency and function on a pedestal, and ignores humanity, warmth and wholeness. Sadly the mirror is telling the truth, if we think how the world is today. The visual appearance of the campus starkly contradicts the stated aim of the school to be "warm and welcoming". But that's how modern architecture is, and probably will be for a long time. It has largely solidified itself, and won't change unless we do.
@@adoatero5129 I dont totally disagree. I think that the school will change over time as trees grow and the area changes. The facade of the school supplies energy to the school. It's very energy efficient. I personally love the climate inside the school. They have done a lot with the air quality, sound is keept in check by sound proofed ceilings.And there is a lot of natural lige due to the many windows. If you are in Copenhagen some tilme you should visit it and get a tour! It's pretty great :) Agree on the "modern architecture" point. My wife is an architect and we often talk about the many new building shouting "look at me, look at me" Not very nice!
@@filmplusdk I'm from Finland :-). I very much appreciate the green technology and the amenities (if that's the right word) you describe. I'm a long time proponent of renewable energy myself, and I also consider good air and lighting important (I have full spectrum lights with good colour rendering installed at my home). Good noise dampening is very important at schools and other environments, where people need to either concentrate on something or be able to rest and relax, and I think it's important at homes too. People who designed the CIS clearly made their best effort to create a good environment for the students. Architecture is an interesting and important subject, so you are lucky to have an architect in the family :-). You two undoubtedly have good discussions about the subject. Your example, "look at me, look at me", describes many modern buildings well. I myself have nothing else to do with architecture than use and view it's products :-). Some personal views: We talk a lot about art, and how it is important (as it is), but pieces of (visual) art are mostly small and hidden inside somewhere. Buildings are huge and everywhere, and in practice we are forced to look at them daily, often for a long periods of time. I really think buildings affect us a lot, and because of that it's hugely important how they look. Inside we know that we created them, so they are us. If something essential in us is not represented in a building, or it is distorted, we can mentally reject the building. If the same thing is missing from or distorted in most buildings or whole cities, we must surrender mentally, partly because the proof seems overwhelming, and partly because we can't keep rejecting what's around us all the time. We give in, and with suppressed discomfort accept the surrounding architectural presentation of ourselves. If I come to Copenhagen some time, I very well might visit CIS :-).
Thanks for watching :)

The school is great, but I find the appearance of the building ugly and soulless.
Ok. I don’t agree. Are you a student there?
