House of Knowledge Education Center / Liljewall
Gällivare, located north of the Arctic circle, is a city undergoing a unique transformation. Two centres will merge when neighbouring area Malmberget is relocated to Gällivare as a result of mining development. Through dialogues with citizens and contact with the local business sector and other stakeholders, the municipality has established a vision to build a ?world-class Arctic town?. Liljewall has contributed to this vision through the creation of Kunskapshuset, which will house the municipality?s upper secondary school and adult education centres. Using the mine and nature?s contours as inspiration, the six-storey-high school has been designed as a landmark that tells the story of the culture and the area. The asymmetrical design breaks down the building?s scale and gives it an enduring and powerful architectural character.
