ABOUT US

WE ARE A FAMILY BUSINESS

BJERG is a family business - established in Hjørring in 1987 by CEO Kjeld Bjerg. Today we are a multi-generational company. We are really happy to work in such an environment and several of us have been in the company for more than 10 years.

We feel that this also means something to our clients.

The office has 30 employees who solve tasks within both new constructions, conversions and renovations. Our references range from kindergartens, schools, nursing homes and commercial construction to villas, housing estates and landscape projects. Regardless of the size and type of the project we, in close cooperation with the client, are concerned with designing buildings with a clear story and an optimized energy requirement within the framework of the economy.

We are proud of our roots in Northern Jutland, and what goes with it (including the raw nature, "Bjesk" and "Vendelbomål"), but at least as proud that today we can call ourselves an international architectural firm with offices in Copenhagen, Aalborg, Hjørring, Oslo and Warsaw. Contact us here.

"Green documentation"

Documentation is the key to sustainable construction.

At BJERG, we are up to date with the new requirements in the industry.
We are familiar with the requirements of the building regulations, certification schemes and methods such as DGNB, the Nordic Ecolabel, Cradle to cradleand and BREEAM. In addition, we carry out LCA (Life Cycle Assesment) og LCC(Life Cycle Cost analysis).
We take care of the client's sustainability requirements and can also help other consulting companies with, for example, an LCA.

Energy consul­tancy

We build and reno­vate extremely energy-efficient.

Our DNA is to design, advise and project low-energy houses. For us, energy-efficient construction is an essential part of the solution to the challenges of the future. It really reduces the CO2 emission, users thrive in a healthy indoor climate and costs for operation and maintenance is low.

BJERG was the first Danish architectural firm to design based on Passive House principles. Passive houses (PHPP) have stricter requirements for insulation, energy use, heating sources and air tightness than the minimum requirements from the building regulations. The low energy consumption in passive houses is achieved among other things by building compactly, utilizing the sun's heat and using the right materials. The word "Passive" refers to the fact that a large part of the building's heating needs come from "passive" sources such as the sun. In addition to passive houses, we also work with energy class 2020.

We design daycare institutions

“The Child’s Green Universe” is the space we move in when we design daycare centers — and we do that often. 

We are recognized as specialists in the field. It comes from many years of designing children's institutions in Denmark, Norway and Poland. We have learned to create the right environment where the child's well-being, the needs of the employees, aesthetics, environment and functionality go hand in hand.

Good logistics give the employee more time with the children when they don't have to run between floors to get diapers. A good overview provides safety and the opportunity to help each other. A healthy indoor climate and good daylight conditions provide more happiness and fewer sick days.

Our expe­ri­ence and clear strat­egy make coop­er­a­tion with the client straightforward.

Green outdoor spaces

We love the inter­play between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Conceiving and designing surroundings is a natural part of a complete project. For those tasks, we have specialists in permaculture, landscape and biodiversity.
Our tasks are devided in different scales: Private gardens, playgrounds, nature restoration, rainwater management (LAR), parks, plant-based solutions, etc. All in all we have a creative approach and a big focus on the environment, sensory stimuli, experiences and low maintenance.
Contact us and have a no-obligation chat about how we can help make your dream of outdoor areas a reality.

At BJERG we are well equipped to help you achieve your goals with fire safety regardless of the size and type of construction.
