Snøhetta was in 2007 commissioned to draw an
office building with a site that lies on the west side of the Central Station
in Bjørvika, in the “Barcode” – area, on the city’s harbourfront.
The building’s site has the most important
position in new Barcode masterplan, with view of the Oslo Opera house and
surrounding fjords.
The 15 storey building has a vertical split
that rotates through the building and links the opposite sides in a sculptural
internal structure.
The design was developed from the point of
intersection of the building’s internal room design, the masterplan guidelines
and a desire to create a building that is sculptural in form.
The two lowest floors of the building will have
shops and refreshment areas, the belonging outdoor areas will have
supplementary outdoor refreshment facilities. From the 2nd to 11th floor there
will be offices and 12th to 15th floor will hold a canteen and conference rooms
with adjacent green roof terraces.
The second to eleventh floor are office spaces,
and floors 12 to 15 hold a canteen, conference rooms and green roof terraces.
On January 9th, 2014 Deloitte officially opened their new office building in
Bjørvika, Oslo, making it Snøhetta`s most recently completed project in Norway.
