The three adapted houses on the island of Karmøy, Norway, are designed for people with serious substance abuse and psychiatric diagnoses. Shapes, colors and sturdy materials have been carefully selected to increase the quality of living for residents, while customized solutions for housing technology and fire safety have been developed to strengthen HSE and safety for employees, as well as reduce the municipality's costs.

Om oss
Snøhetta is an international integrated architecture and design firm. The practice has a global presence, with offices spanning from Oslo, Paris, and Innsbruck, to New York, San Francisco. Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Adelaide and Melbourne. Snøhetta kick-started its career in 1989 with the competition-winning entry for the new library of Alexandria, Egypt. This was later followed by the commission for the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet in Oslo, and the National September 11 Memorial Museum Pavilion at the World Trade Center in New York City, among many others. Since its inception, the practice has maintained its original transdisciplinary approach, and integrates architectural, landscape, interior, product, graphic, digital design and art across its projects. The collaborative nature between Snøhetta's different disciplines is an essential driving force of the practice. Snøhetta is currently working on a wide range of international projects, including the Ordrupgaard Art Museum expansion in Denmark and the Shanghai Grand Opera House. Recently completed works include Le Monde Group Headquarters in Paris, Europe’s first underwater restaurant, Under, the redesign of the public space in Times Square, the expansion to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Lascaux IV: The International Centre for Cave Art, Powerhouse Brattørkaia and the design for Norway’s new banknotes. Snøhetta’s working method practices a simultaneous exploration of traditional handicraft and cutting-edge digital technology. At the heart of all Snøhetta’s work lies a commitment to social and environmental sustainability, shaping the built environment and design in the service of humanism. Snøhetta believes well-conceived design can help things run more efficiently, improve people’s well-being and make life more enjoyable. Every project is designed with strong, meaningful concepts in mind – concepts that can translate the ethos of its users and their context.

On the island of Karmøy on the west coast of Norway, Snøhetta has designed three adapted homes for residents with serious substance abuse and psychiatric diagnoses. Shapes, colours and sturdy materials have been carefully selected to increase the quality of living for residents. Customized solutions for housing technology and fire safety is developed to strengthen HSE and safety for employees, as well as reduce the municipality's costs. "We hope that we have created homes that users want to take care of so that they have a longer lifespan than such homes generally have today," says Elin Vatn, Senior Interior Architect and Project Lead. The homes are based on results from a research project that will continue to collect data after residents have moved in. Ideally, the experience gained with the three homes on Karmøy can form the basis for further development of the prototype.

For the 100-year anniversary of the The Norwegian Ski Museum in Oslo, Snøhetta has designed a new extension and outdoor entrance for the museum, situated by the Holmenkollen Ski Jump. The new façade consists of a five-meter tall glass wall partially clad by a curtain of Norwegian pine wood planks, 1207 pieces in total, inspired by the original material for skis, and the traditional wooden fence skigard. Since the jump itself and associated buildings are characterized by hard surfaces such as concrete, steel, stone, and dark colors, it was natural to contrast it with elements of softer and warmer surfaces. By dismantling one third of the building underneath the ski jump, the museum is now more accessible and has a more evident identity of its own.

We are thrilled to conclude the year with the exciting news that Elle Decor Italia has appointed Snøhetta Product Design as Designer of the Year – for “their ability to bring innovation, research, and sustainability to large-scale industrial projects.” Jury motivation excerpts: « Snøhetta — From the ethical and transdisciplinary practice of the award-winning Norwegian architecture studio comes their new division dedicated to product design. They impressed us during last year’s Milan Design Week with their ability to bring innovation, research, and sustainability to large-scale industrial projects. » « Take the Array system, for example, designed for the Italian brand MDF [...] constructed from recycled injection-molded plastic, with bio-foam padding and coverings in either fabric or recycled polyester. The entire system is fully disassemblable, embracing a fully sustainable approach. Snøhetta also collaborated with Fornace Brioni to create Void, a line of hand-pressed terracotta tiles. This sustainable and high-tech collection, with rounded-profile voids, introduces an innovative decorative motif blending soft forms and 3D geometries. » « This ongoing exploration shows how avant-garde design can become increasingly green. » Read more about all category winners in Elle Decor Italia’s latest magazine. 📸 by: @fornacebrioni / Mattia Balsamini / Snøhetta /Oioioi 📷 by: @shestakovych.studio @mdfitalia_official #snøhetta #designeroftheyear #elledecoritalia #EDIDA2025 #snøhettadesign #fornacebrioni #mdfitalia #studiooftheyear

Our finalist proposal for the Northeastern University Center for Coastal Cities Climate Solutions and Research Lagoon takes advantage of the water’s edge as a space for climate adaptation research. As a pavilion set within Governors Island’s landscape, the flexible site plan allows for the facility to grow over time to accommodate new partnerships, programs, and audiences. The hexagrid structure of the new terrain creates an urban design framework of park-like paths and networked open spaces that maintain a fluid connection between park and water. The project’s phasing also integrates the flexibility necessary to adapt in the face of an uncertain future and incorporate new resilience and sustainability technologies. 📷by: Tegmark @wxystudio @northeastern #governorsisland #climatesolutions #research #design #snohetta #architecture #landscapearchitecture
