A-Lab’s winning energy-efficient office concept for StatoilHydro

Oslo’s A-Lab has come out with a winner in a competition to design the 2012 location for Norway’s oil company StatoilHydro. The new modern and flexible office compound surpassed 40 entries and brings together two separated building by with five separate wings lying on top of each other to represent a star. This will help the company have effective communication and save on couriers and transport charges going up and down the town.

The interiors of the building will have a direct heating and cooling system which will reduce wasted heating power by reaching a large area thereby reducing costs and energy utilized. This beautifully smart building will also have a garden all around it to offer a very green zone. Project completion is planned by 2012.
