The space planning ensures effective collaboration between the different departments of the company whilst the choice of contrasting metal and wooden finishes tell the story about Lundin’s activities. When searching for oil, treasures are found beneath the hard ocean surface – in the case of the building, warm pockets of wood are revealed behind a cold steel exterior.

Lighting helps tell this story and further emphasise the contrast between the warm and bright wood and the dark and cold steel. Bespoke lighting details were designed by Light Bureau and realised as part of the joinery package by Buskerud Spesialinnredning. By making light an integrated part of the joinery, adding foreign materials to the story was avoided and the focus could remain on the feature interior design elements.
