A new hotel and office built in central Örebro, close to a travel station. The area is an old track area that has been under development in recent years. The challenge with this project has been the central location with a small project area and proximity to the train tracks.
The geographical location and its good communications contribute to making Örebro one of Sweden’s most important freight and logistics hubs. The E18 and E20 highways meet here and link the city with Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Oslo, and Sweden’s fourth largest freight airport is located in Örebro.
“KG Constructions Group” is responsible for unitised and stick curtain walls of the first phase of the project. It is a 14-story building with offices, a hotel, a restaurant, a gym and attractive outdoor environments, encompassing around 8,600 sq.m. Special developed unitised façade is based on the Schüco system, completely prefabricated.
For the façade finish, aluminum composite panels cassettes were in a special color “bronze metallic”, which creates an impression of a non-divided façade. Cassettes are designed as consoles and stick out onto a lower installed element. Cover caps divide the façade into vertical and horizontal segments, which separate clear glass units and blind enameled glass parts.
The building has been designed by Archus Arkitektur.
