Project description
The building that previously housed TV2 in Bergen will be dismantled to make way for new apartment buildings with a total of 100 apartments. A maritime kindergarten and a lush urban garden will also be built as part of the project. The buildings will be built as passive houses with energy class A.
The project aims for a 90 per cent sorting rate when dismantling existing buildings. Wood, bricks, façade panels and sprinkler pipes make up most of the materials that can be reused. For example, the entire floor of the former TV2 building will be used for exterior cladding in the new buildings. Loose fixtures and technical installations that are suitable for reuse, such as ventilation ducts, have already been given away or sold to other projects. In this way, the project will take responsibility for ensuring that the materials do not become waste, but are reused.
When the existing buildings are dismantled, wood and bricks will also be removed and reserved for future buyers who want these materials as optional extras in their apartments. The ambition is that as many apartments as possible will take advantage of this opportunity, thereby further anchoring the history of the materials' previous origins. Bricks from the current building will also be used in the walls around the planting beds. Inside, existing sprinkler pipes will be reused as balusters in the handrails for the new stairs.
