Scheme is to replace buildings damaged in 2011 Breivik attacks
Haptic and Nordic are in a team that has been shortlisted for a new government quarter in Norway’s capital Oslo after being damaged in terrorist attacks carried out five years ago by Anders Breivik.
The competition is being organised by the country’s state building agency, Statsbygg, with a total of seven teams chasing the deal.
The scheme includes three existing and six large new buildings with the space being developed coming to around 150,000sq m.
It will provide space for 5,700 workers and has been described by Statsbygg as “the competition of the century”.
The Haptic and Nordic team also includes Ramboll while other teams feature a host of Scandinavian practices including Norwegian firms Saaha and Snohetta.
