Completed in 2016, Cobe Architects designed a four story 3,100 square meter museum located in Roskilde. This city is home of Denmark’s biggest music festival, and the Ragnarock museum provides a new attraction for rock music fans amongst the city’s old cement factories.

The golden anodized aluminum panels that surround the building’s entire exterior reference costumes worn by famous rock stars and the red studs lining the interior were inspired by velvet-lined guitar cases. The museum’s name references Norse mythology. Every detail of this building symbolizes something. The red carpet is said to be based around the journey of a rock star. The carpet leads into the entrance hall, where visitors are invited to “rise to fame” and eventually arrive at the main auditorium.
