Powerhouse Telemark sets a new standard for the construction of environmentally sustainable buildings by reducing its yearly net energy consumption by 70% compared to similar new-construction offices, and by producing more energy than it will consume over its entire lifespan.
Just like its ambitious sister projects Powerhouse Kjørbo, Powerhouse Montessori and Powerhouse Brattørkaia, Powerhouse Telemark aspires to be model for environmentally, socially and economically sustainable architecture, while also challenging our conception of what our offices might look like in the post COVID-19 era.
Erik Jørgensen’s Corona chairs have been given new life. The local handicraft association Grenland husflidslag has applied a new crocheted upholstering to these iconic chairs made by left over yard from the Norwegian wool factory Gudbrandsdalens uldvarefabrikk.
