  • Sara Cultural Centre in Skellefteå, which opened to the public in 2021, is one of the tallest wooden buildings in the world . The 20-storey building contains two theatres, an art centre, a library and many public spaces for people to meet. The vision for the cultural centre is to become the 'living room' of the city - a melting pot for ideas and cultural exchange.
    Audio description: This video shows Sara Cultural Centre as a building site, as a model and as illustrations, both interior and exterior. Speaker is Mark Isitt, journalist and architecture critic - also filmed on site wearing a yellow high-visibility vest and a hard hat. Other people interviewed are, in the order that they appear: Oskar Norelius, architect and partner at White Arkitekter; Robert Schmitz, architect and partner at White Arkitekter; Francesca Quartey, CEO of Västerbottensteatern; Maria Ekberg Brännström, CEO of Skellefteå Kulturhus; Therese Kreisel, architect and head of urban planning at Skellefteå munipality; and Harriet Wistemar, municipal architect and director of planning at Skellefteå municipality.
    Architect: White Arkitekter
    This film is produced by the Swedish Institute and Architects Sweden in collaboration with Swedish Wood and the Swedish Forest Industries as part of the exhibition 'Woodlife Sweden'. Please contact the Swedish Institute/Sharing Sweden for requests.

    This gave me some tears. The end result is awe-inspiring. As one said, change within ecological, economical, and social point of view. Just looking at it, there is a sense of connection and unity to our natural environment, working with it, celebrating and cherishing it, and not against it. Bravo. 👏🏼

    • @kronop8884
      @kronop8884 Год назад

      About 15000 trees all sourced locally, at less than 35 miles (app 60km) from the building, and they are all re-planted to replace those harvested.
