Site-specific ​colour composition integrated in the facade outside and the floor inside the Skywalk. The composition is a reflection of the surface on the opposite side of the plane. 

As a play on transparency, the bridge between the two sections of the Niels Bohr Building is covered with two identical colour compositions - one on the inside linoleum flooring, and one on the outside facade panels underneath, facing the street. With a regard for both the architecture and the materials, the pattern is composed to mimic the structure of the building and form a connection between the outside and the inside.

“Malene Bach’s decoration of the skywalk [...] is brilliant. This is due, in particular, to her play with the principle of transparency”– Trine Ross, Politiken, Saturday July 22nd 2017

Motivation from Klara Karolines Fond Stiftet af Aase & Poul Gernes:
“Malene Bach (b. 1967) is honored with a scholarship for her spatial decorations of, among others, the skywalk at the Niels Bohr Building above Jagtvej. This is an artistic intervention in the urban space that most passersby will notice, but only a few will know who is behind it, or that it is `Art’. This mark of nobility is deeply rooted in Aase & Poul Gernes’ spirit and attitude: Art should have a positive effect on the streetscape and in society without necessarily drawing attention to itself.
Likewise, Malene Bach is given the grant for her colour scheme with local pigments at the Avasara Academy in Pune, a boarding school for economically disadvantaged young women in western India. Colour is here the material that connects building and landscape, and Bach makes it so obvious that one barely notices the artistic gesture.”
