The Indigo Consortium—comprising schmidt hammer lassen architects, aarhus arkitekterne, Creo Arkitekter and engineering consultants NNE Pharmaplan, Brix & Kamp Rådgivende Ingeniører, Oluf Jørgensen Rådgivende Ingeniører and Royal Haskoning—has won the competition to design the New Aalborg University Hospital in Northern Jutland, Denmark – a project of € 551.5 million. The winning design merges the new hospital complex with the sloping landscape in a smooth transition from the existing Aalborg University. The concept of the new masterplan is to create an urban structure where streets, paths and courtyards form greatly diverse spaces, while referring to the human scale in both the buildings and the spaces in between.

The new hospital, which is part of a governmental health reform, comprises a 330,000 m2 masterplan with 134,500 m2 hospital buildings and 17,000 m2 for the Faculty of Health Science of Aalborg University. The Indigo Consortium consists of schmidt hammer lassen architects, Aarhus Arkitekterne, Creo Arkitekter and four consulting engineering companies: Brix & Kamp, Oluf Jørgensen, NNE Pharmaplan and Royal Haskoning. The consortium is backed up by sub-consultants Norconsult, Arkitekt Kristine Jensens Tegnestue, Implement and Bjørk & Maigaard.
