Project:Citizen service centre and administration, 25.000
Type:1st prize invited competition
Client name:Municipality of Lund

Christensen & Co architects were recently announced as winners of an international competition for the new city council building in Lund in Sweden. Transparency, staff/visitor synergy, innovation and sustainability are the key ambitions behind the new city hall due to be completed in 2012.

The city hall has a very ambitious green profile meaning that the building will only use a fraction of the energy normally consumed by a building of this type. Healthy and sustainable materials, an advanced energy strategy based on natural ventilation, solar power, earth water cooling and grass roof will ensure that Lund’s city hall is expected to become the greenest city hall in Sweden.

The unanimous jury states: “The proposal from CCO creates a unique building based on creative and competent solutions that are adapted to both the site and the functions of the building. The new city hall will be an elegant and sculptural structure that combines openness towards the park with a denser, heavier façade towards Lund’s historical city centre. The variation in scale and height creates a dynamic play of light and shade and the new city hall compasses both dignity and iconic qualities both of which were requested by the Municipality of Lund”.
