Stadshus, Lund, SE

The proposed building plays an active role in the master plan for West Lund and the project to connect East & West Lund. On the north side it forms a new public square warmed by south and west sun bounded by the entrance building to new city hall that gives social focus to the locale. The new bridge across the railway delivers to a smaller public square on top of the entrance building, with a shape that echoes the plan forms intended in the north.

The facades consist of deep brick fins that provide passive solar control. To provide variety and scale they are designed as an assembly of different parts like the buildings opposite in East Lund with an attic that modulates the roof-line and a clock to emphasise the corner.

A new town hall building for the Swedish city of Lund.
