Nordic region's tallest timber building, Skelleftea, Sweden |
|
White Arkitekter has won an international design competition for Skelleftea's cultural centre and hotel, which will be completed in 2019. Located just below the Arctic Circle in northern Sweden, the city of Skelleftea has a long tradition of timber architecture which inspired the winning proposal 'Sida vid sida' (Side-by-side). 'Kulturhus i Skelleftea' is planned to be a 19-storey structure reaching a height of 76m. The 24,940 sq m BTA building will be timber framed with a glass envelope and has been designed to allow flexibility of use with retractable walls for rooms to be expanded or divided to serve a range of functions from a smaller exhibition to expansive conference facilities. |
