Jonsvollskvartalet, Commercial building in Bergen, Norway

The ten-story Jonsvollskvartalet building stands 25 meters tall with a glass facade and wooden elements reflecting Norwegian coastal architecture.

The location holds significance as it previously contained 18th-century wooden houses, which were demolished in April 2007 despite local opposition.

The building's name originates from the former Jons monastery that once occupied the area, where Engen square currently exists.

The structure houses 700 workspaces across ten floors, includes an auditorium for 100 people, and contains a cafeteria accommodating 300 individuals.

The central atrium features dynamic lighting that changes with weather conditions, connecting interior spaces through an architectural staircase system.

Location: Bergen Municipality

Inception: 2015
