A contemporary brass and glass Visitors Centre in Lund, designed by Carmen Izquierdo, seamlessly integrates with historic buildings, featuring a striking entry forecourt and an expressive auditorium that symbolically reaches towards the cathedral's towers.
Aurubis - Nordic Royal
Architect Carmen Izquierdo’s design, developed from a competition-winning entry, is centred on a thoroughly contemporary brass and glass intervention winding its way between several old buildings, binding them to the complete scheme. The street frontage to Kyrkogatan incorporates a brass canopy, simply continuing the roof plane of the adjacent building, with an entry forecourt below. The building continues back to Kungsgatan, then extends towards the cathedral with an expressive form – the auditorium – terminating with a funnel window, symbolically reaching up towards the historic towers.
