The Norway-based studio Snøhetta is celebrating its 25th anniversary, and to mark this occasion AV magazine has selected 25 of its most important works and projects to summarize a career that soon became international.
With offices in Oslo and New York – and ateliers in San Francisco, Innsbruck and Singapore – the studio has become a global brand with works across the planet. Featuring ten works, five structures and ten projects, the monograph is rounded off with articles by Craig Dykers (founding partner), Norwegian critic Ingerid Helsing Almaas (editor of the magazine Arkitektur N), and an introduction by Luis Fernández-Galiano, who highlights how the office favours design intensity over formal identity.
