Svart Hotel

Just north of the Arctic Circle, Svart, an exciting, futuristic, world’s first energy-positive hotel is being developed. It will be the world’s first energy-positive hotel. The design is low-impact, the construction based on local materials to the extent possible, and subject to rigid sustainability criteria. The hotel will have approximately 100 rooms, education and design labs, and a sustainable farm producing ingredients for the hotel’s four restaurants. Svart's architecture is inspired by local coastal building traditions and stands on wooden piles dissolving the boundary between land and fjord. The shape of the hotel provides a panoramic view of the fjord and an experience of living in proximity to nature. Svart will be built in accordance with the highest energy efficiency standards and if going to be the first building of this kind in the northern hemisphere.
