Finansparken in Stavanger is Norway’s largest commercial building with a load-bearing timber structure. The project is known for its extensive use of wood and a holistic material concept in which slate and timber dominate the interior.

Indoors, Light Oppdal quartzite with an antique brushed surface is used alongside a range of timber species. The warm, light grey slate forms an integrated part of the design language. The same slate continues outdoors, but with a natural surface for slip resistance.

The interior is characterised by locally produced solid wood furniture and high material quality, with a strong focus on long lifespan and low operational needs.
