Highly commended

Jarmund/Vigsnæs Architects

Headquarters for Governor

Svalbard, Norway

December 2001
Svalbard is the most northerly regularly inhabited place in the world. Jarmund Vigsnæs have built a government building on the ruins of a previous structure much destroyed by fire. The new one responds to human needs in the dreadful climate and strange light conditions with understanding and innovation.
