Snøhetta Designs the Vertika Nydalen Project
Amy Duong — May 22, 2024References: yankodesign & snohetta
Renowned design studio Snøhetta presents a look at its latest design project in the form of the Vertika Nydlen, which is a high-rise in Norway. The building is energy efficient and blends sustainable efforts with ingenious design themes. Notably, the structure maintains a comfortable temperature throughout the changes of the year without depending on any grid-based power source.
The Vertikal Nydalen is designed with an asymmetrical shape with two connected towers. These are chosen to protect views for neighbors which leaves a no-shade view. The exterior has a unique finish as well as it is complete with pine. This material ages with time turning from a brown tone into a grey look before being finished with jutting steel balconies.
