”The result is an architectural landmark”, the Danish Stone Masons Guild writes. “The slate stone contributes to creating a unique interplay between the roof, walls and floors. The simple but high-quality materials and the courage to use so old natural stone make the Scandinavian Golf Club engage in beautiful interaction with the surrounding scenery.”
The Scandinavian Golf Club is situated in the striking, hilly landscape of a previous military training area. The design beautifully bridges the gap between a traditional American golf club and functional Scandinavian design. The project also won the Carpenter Award in 2009.
The Natural Stone Award is given to individuals, companies, institutions or building owners who have made an extraordinary effort for the stone mason industry. This year’s award will be presented on Thursday 6 October 2011 by Guild Master Ole Grage.
