In response to the growing need for affordable housing close to the local university, 3XN teamed up with developer Jens Richard Pedersen to design a residential high-rise near the institution. The future tower has been dubbed La Tour as an ode to the building that currently occupies the site, Hotel La Tour.

La Tour will have 31 floors and rise to a height of 95 meters. The majority of the apartments will be three-bedrooms designed for two people, with the larger apartments located towards the top. Each unit will have its own balcony, providing spectacular views of the city since the site is located at the highest point in Aarhus.
