Lysgården's Architectural Splendor

Experience the fusion of modern design and sustainability in Trondheim's iconic office building.

6000 Rockfon acoustic baffles serves as a visual centerpiece

Innovative Design and Acoustic Excellence in Lysgården

Lysgården in Sluppen district stands as a beacon of modern office architecture, where technology intersects with innovative design. This architectural marvel houses about 6000 Rockfon acoustic baffles, which are not only a visual centerpiece but also serve a critical functional purpose. These baffles, meticulously suspended, create a striking pattern that adds to the building's unique ambiance. They effectively function as sun blinds, allowing light to seep through the glass roof in a pattern reminiscent of sunlight filtering through a forest canopy, thereby creating a serene and inviting atmosphere in the office spaces.

The use of Rockfon acoustic baffles also plays a significant role in enhancing the sound environment within the open-plan offices. These baffles help reduce noise distractions and lower reverberation, contributing to a more comfortable and productive workspace. Their thoughtful integration showcases Lysgården's commitment to combining stunning aesthetics with practical functionality. By featuring different models like Rockfon Contour® in open offices and Rockfon Multiflex in the atrium, the design achieves a perfect harmony of minimalistic expression and design freedom.

Architectural Brilliance and Technological Integration

Spanning six impressive floors, Lysgården exemplifies architectural ingenuity with its capacity to accommodate 80 to 180 workspaces per level. The collaboration between Kjeldsberg AS and Veidekke Eiendom has resulted in a space that attracts prestigious tenants like Veidekke, Sweco, DNV GL, and Kinly.

Emphasising the building's modernity is its integration with Siemens’ app services, which signifies a leap in using modern technology for sustainable living. This system allows for efficient energy use and provides seamless control over various building functions, including access, lighting, temperature management, and meeting room reservations, showcasing Lysgården as a model of futuristic office environments.

Commitment to Comfort and Environmental Sustainability

The architectural vision of Kjell Bertelsen from HUS Arkitekter was to create a workplace that emphasises comfort and well-being, achieved through abundant natural light and the use of raw materials like exposed concrete. This not only lends a unique visual appeal but also contributes to a stable indoor temperature and a healthier work environment.

Additionally, its commitment to environmental sustainability is highlighted by its BREEAM Excellent certification and its status as a passive house. These accolades reflect Lysgården's dedication to reducing its ecological footprint while setting new standards in office building design.
