The most iconic buildings in Stockholm
The most iconic glass buildings in Stockholm
Stockholm is a wonderland of architectural masterpieces with iconic glass buildings showcasing a range of contemporary designs. Combining aesthetics with structural innovation creates the allure of these buildings for both the occupants and passersby. This eBook looks at how comfort and creativity are used to construct three iconic contemporary buildings using glass.
Comfort and creative design
In architecture, glass isn’t merely used for aesthetic purposes. From a technical point of view, it can also be incorporated into a building’s design to help provide thermal insulation, solar protection and noise control. Using glass can contribute to the comfort of the occupants but it can also be inspired by creative concepts.
Swedish architecture showcases a range of innovative contemporary projects, employing unconventional forms of construction and diverse materials to create truly unique buildings. Using glass has given a certain je ne sais quoi and specific personality to a myriad of structures, making these buildings benchmarks of innovative architecture that is both functional and artistic.
Focus on Sweden’s architectural masterpieces using glass
In this eBook you’ll find a description of three iconic projects in Stockholm:
- The Norra Tornen Tower with its unique architectural approach
- The PostNord Headquarter using transparency to create a connection with nature
- The Victoria Tower oddly shaped with arrangement of different colours
Each of these structures demonstrates why selecting the right glass for your project based on its specific requirements helps improve both the functional and aesthetic quality of your building.
From prism-like structures, or wooden and glass buildings etched into a hillside, and even impressively looming residential towers, Sweden has a number of buildings that have used the beauty and efficiency of glass to create iconic landmarks.
