A-Block, the government quarter
HENT has been awarded the contract to build the A block in the new government quarter in Oslo.
The A block is a new building in the construction phase which is planned to have 11 floors and 17,300 square meters above ground. One of the government quarter's two main entrances will be located in the A-block connected to a beautiful and upright atrium. In addition to office space, the building will also contain a public café, press and conference centre, an auditorium and representative areas. The A-block will house the Ministry of Trade and Fisheries and the Ministry of Climate and Environment.
For this project, Jotne Ankers will supply handrails in the main staircase, handrails in secondary stairs and various handrails on the wall.
