In Hasle, Norway, a building completely made of wood manages to optimize consumption and construction times thanks to cutting-edge technology. The HasleTre embodies the new architecture made of ethical and ecological choices, aimed at recycling and circularity
HasleTre is the result of almost 15 years of experience of the Norwegian firm Oslotre in architecture projects focused on sustainability and biobased construction materials. In the BREEAM environmental impact certification, HasleTre is classified as "Excellent" due to a 60% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and an 80% reduction in steel consumption compared to the reference building category
For the commercial building that now houses the Save the Children organization, wood has been used both as a construction material and for insulation and cladding. Everything is held together by innovative joints that eliminate the need for steel and aluminum in construction. Assembled in record time, HasleTre is designed to be disassembled and its pieces can be reused
Many resources have been invested in designing the innovative solutions of HasleTre, making a strong contribution to the advancement of a circular and ecological architecture. The creative director of Oslotre Architecture & Construction Technology HasleTre, Jørgen Tycho, reports the gratification of the entire studio in seeing the result of the commitment and research that their work in the field of innovative and sustainable architecture has been carrying forward for over a decade
