Glasshuset, Indoor shopping center in Bodø, Norway
Glasshuset is a shopping center in Bodø covered by a glass roof structure that runs above a street. Multiple shops and restaurants are located beneath this transparent canopy.
The center was created in 1992 when a glass roof structure was built over an existing street. This transformed an open public space into a weather-protected shopping location.
This is a central gathering place in Bodø where people come together during the day. Shops and restaurants shape how locals and visitors use this covered street.
The center has underground parking available, making it convenient for visitors to arrive by car. It is easy to enter and move through, with clear routes connecting the shops.
The glass structure allows daylight to reach inside the shops, even on the dark days of the north. This is unusual for traditional shopping centers and creates a more open feel.
