BIG proposes a sustainable factory in Norway

Norweigan furniture manufacturer, Vestre, commissioned Bjarke Ingles Group to design a sustainable factory for their products. The Plus will be the first industrial building in Norway to achieve BREEAM Outstanding, and will have 1,200 solar panels, heat exchangers, smart robots, self-driving trucks and heat exchangers to help reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of the typical factories.

The Plus is located in the middle of a Norwegian forest, and the 300-acre public park around it will be open for hiking and camping.
