Snøhetta

Snøhetta has completed work on an ambitious new skyscraper in Hong Kong named Airside that's inspired by textiles and tailoring. It also incorporates an impressive degree of sustainable design, including solar power and rainwater collection.

Snøhetta has joined forces with Vipp to create a collection of luxurious vacation cabins situated above a fjord in Norway, which feature generous glazing that's designed to make visitors feel like they're floating on the edge of the cliffside.

Snøhetta recently completed an attractive timber maritime center in Denmark. Inspired by wooden boat construction, it's designed to withstand punishing local conditions and lights up pleasantly at night, resulting in its name: the Lantern.

Commissioned to create a new library in the Bronx, Snøhetta has drawn inspiration from the NYC borough's relative abundance of trees to design an eye-catching building that will sport a green exterior and significant sustainability features.

Snøhetta has revealed plans for a new skyscraper in Tokyo. The Shibuya Upper West Project is designed to offer a peaceful sanctuary in the heart of the bustling city and will be defined by a ceramic and glass facade that's broken up by greenery.

Snøhetta's Beijing Sub-Center Library will feature glazed walls and tree-shaped columns, as well as a forest canopy-like roof. Visitors will enjoy a light-filled environment that plays on the idea of sitting under a tree and reading a book.

Taking the overall form of a large V-shape, Snøhetta's "dancing" towers are designed so they don't cast too much shade on the local area. The two buildings will be situated above an opera house that will feature a stunning sculpted timber interior.

Those with a head for heights can soon visit an amazing new viewing point at one of NYC's tallest skyscrapers. It will allow visitors to step out onto glass boxes, ride around in glass elevators, and journey through a reflective art installation.

Denmark's Ordrupgaard Museum hosts so much art that despite a prior extension by Zaha Hadid, it required even more space. Snøhetta rose to this challenge by creating an underground gallery in a very awkward and compact site.

New viewing points are being positioned high on New York's One Vanderbilt supertall, including a pair of transparent boxes that extend outward from the tower and allow visitors to enjoy superb views of the city. If they're brave enough.

Norway's remarkably ambitious Stad Ship Tunnel has finally been given the thumbs up. Slated to begin construction next year, the tunnel will cut through an entire peninsula, allowing ships to bypass Norway's most hazardous shipping route.

When Snøhetta was commissioned to design a new headquarters for Le Monde Group on a site that couldn't support a heavy structure at its center due to underground rail lines, the firm responded with a striking building that's defined by a large arch.
