Mass Timber projects are popping up around the globe but this one takes on some exceptionally interesting ideas. Anders Berensson Architects have proposed a skyline changing Wood Skyscrapers for downtown Stockholm. The projects is 113 m tall and built above an existing parking garage. The weight of CLT compared to traditional construction methods was a key determining factor in its choice as the structural system. The positive environmental benefits of the project were also key to the choice of CLT.
The project is wrapped in an artistically stylized facade which not only works as a sunshade for the interior of the structure but also allows easy counting of the floors as this will be the tallest building in Stockholm. The project has been named Trätoppen which means the tree top.
