Strategic Architecture
Kungsbrohuset. Västra Järnvägsgatan. This building from 2010 is famous for its two facades. Both made of glass. Which saves a lot of energy. Designed by Kerstin Heijde from Strategisk Arkitektur.
OK. I looked it up and read about it, wanting to know how that much glass on a facade saves energy. I saw "quintuple" glazing used to describe it. Probably a good thing for Sweden!! So far north. Down here in TX...probably back to the drawing board. It IS handsome.
Patterns, lines and angles at their very best.
ReplyDeleteUna fachada muy atractiva para la fotografía

ReplyDeleteLooks good but you really need a lot of glass for isolation purpose.
