Office and shop complex proposal by JAJA

By Sebastian J — Filed under: News , Offices , , ,
 

This was sent to us by Klaus Olsen via our Facebook Group. The Danish architects JAJA have just revealed their new proposal for an office and shop complex in Sandnes – Norway. They have worked with Rambøll Aros on this 13,000m2 project.

The building is named after an ancient Viking Ship, which was called worm Lange. The ship was Norwegian, and it feels appealing to draw historical references to a piece of contemporary architecture.

It is amazing how the paths of imagination cross in architecture. I leave you a page of my portfolio for you to think about.
