Oslo, Norway
Completed in 2019, the 195,000-sqaure-foot development known as the Diagonale is a set of eco-friendly buildings centrally located in Oslo’s vibrant new district, Bjørvika. Its name derived from the diagonal pedestrian street bypassing the two buildings, the development is divided into two parts: A8, which houses Deichman library; and A9, which is utilized for housing, office spaces, dining, retail shops, and events.
For the interior of the A9 building, architects at Lundhagem specified 1,100 square feet of 5/16” aluminum Fabricoil® coiled wire fabric to meet the project’s fall protection requirements within interior stairwells. The material was finished in powder-coated Antique Bronze, custom slope-cut, and attached to the staircase frame and railings on site.
When utilized for fall protection, Fabricoil architectural mesh systems possess all of the safety features needed to meet code requirements while augmenting the visual appeal of an interior space. Coiled wire fabric’s semi-transparent qualities afford spaces the perfect blend of transparency and privacy, allowing light and views through the material without providing complete visibility.
