awards.
- We are working with several projects which could be of international
interest.
Our webpresentation is by the time being only in norwegian. Hopefully
we will have english texted pages by the end of this spring. The
pictures should though be "read" universally!
If you contact us (se "Kontakt" for direct mail contacts) - you
will meet not only english speekers, but also people speeking
more or less fluently german, french and spanish.
CUBUS is a 31-years old firm situated in Bergen - Norway´s second
largest city. For many years CUBUS was seen as a leading representative
of what was called "The Bergen School" in norwegian architecture.
An approach to architecture based on crossprofessional knowledge,
a more "holistic" analysis of buildingground/ the space focusing
the users an the others most involved in the project. Ecological
perspectives were early (from the 70s) included in the approach
and practice.
The CUBUS´group includes today 20 architects (incl. 3 landscapearchitects)
and planners. 13 are owners.
CUBUS won this year a second award in The European Landscape Architectural
Prize 2002 for a "plaza" in Kabelvåg in northers Norway (The project
is exclusivly presented in a book with english text!). CUBUS was
also a winner of the highly ranked "Statens byggeskikkspris" which
is a governmental prize for best architecture. CUBUS (and others)
were awarded for public/urban spaces in Bergen.
