Solberg Tower

 
 

Size:
2000 m2

Location:
Sarpsborg, Norway

Status:
Completed 2010

We were commissioned to design a park at the entrance of Norway coming from Sweden. This park will be one of the first places travelers will stop when entering Norway. The park is surrounded by a long wall composed of cortain steel on the outside and wood on the inside surface. The wall encompasses a 2000m2 space, making it into a quiet park. The wall continues to the surround the park and then rises 30m in the air to form a tower. The tower is just a simple stair. On top one will be able to see the Oslo fjord.
