Rejlers engaged in the design of Humanisten in Gothenburg
2014-06-03
Akademiska Hus is reconstructing and extending Humanisten at the University of Gothenburg in order to collocate its activities. Rejlers has been awarded the planning contract for electricity, telecommunications and lifts.
Humanisten is the centre of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Gothenburg. The original building, which was completed in 1984, is located at Renströmsparken in Gothenburg. Over a ten-year period, the University of Gothenburg intends to bring its six departments together on the same site in order to strengthen collaboration within the faculty.
The reconstructed and extended building will cover an area of approximately 25,000 square metres. The new premises will house teaching rooms, a café, a lecture hall, meeting rooms and a restaurant among other things. The building contractor is Akademiska Hus, the architect is KUB arkitekter and the general contractor in this collaborative project is NCC. Systems management planning will take place during 2014. Detailed planning work is underway for the Humanisten project and is being prepared for presentation. Two programme councils have been held, one in 2009 and one in 2012.
