Among a friend's photos on Facebook I spotted an interesting skyline with a distinctive waterside building that looks like it's just being completed:

distinctive waterside building

I've travelled to over fifty countries and I can't tell where this is. Can somebody identify the city and/or the building?

(Yes I know I could just ask him but this way I get to share my curiosity.)

It is an apartment complex built on the waterfront of Aarhus in Denmark.

Isbjerget was created in a collaboration between four architectural firms: JDS, CEBRA, SeARCH, and Louis Paillard. It took 5 years for the project to be completed, and is one of the first projects to be completed within De Bynære Havnearealer, the new docklands quarter of the city. The area was once a container port but is now being transformed into a sprawling development designed to house 7,000 inhabitants and provide 12,000 jobs
