Skanska Headquarters

Description

Skanska really believes in green and sustainable solutions, and integrating plants into the design of the office is living proof of this. We didn’t build paravan walls to provide division in the space. Instead, we use tools of land-art and plant little living forests to divide the interior. Since Skanska’s office is in a building developed and built by Skanska, we show the original surfaces of the structure, and the rough concrete ceiling becomes an elegant part of the interior.

Statement of the jury

The approach focuses on the naturalness of real plants. The integration of plants and trees as room dividers and relaxing islands is a good, sustainable idea that lends the room a natural atmosphere. At the same time, the plants combine with the simple wooden furniture to create an interesting contrast to the rough concrete ceiling.
