SOLAR-POWERED SCHOOL OF THE FUTURE CIS – COPENHAGEN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL NORDHAVN C.F. MØLLER ARCHITECTS CIS Nordhavn is a new school building for the Copenhagen International School, which will be located on a prominent site in Copenhagen’s new Nordhavn district. The 25,000 m 2 school building will be Copenhagen’s largest school, and accommodate 1,200 students and 280 employees. The modern educational architecture is designed to link the school premises with the public sphere in the urban environment, and give the school an open ambience.
