The Red Warehouse is CapMan Real Estate Denmark’s most complex project to date. All that remained of the original building was a raw surface, brick walls, and old wooden ceiling beams. The Red Warehouse appeared partially as a ruin, and there were few traces of the original operations. As the warehouse was a listed building, along with several other buildings in Carlsberg’s old brewery area, careful planning of the restoration and permission for all proposed changes were required.

It is rare to get the chance to invest in a building with such unique development opportunities in the most sought-after and vibrant area in the heart of Copenhagen. We saw huge potential in the Red Warehouse, where others mainly saw challenges. The idea was to transform the old brewery building into a state of the art contemporary office space
