Placed at a sloping terrain with proximity and views to the railway in the center of Aarhus, SLETH has designed a multi-use building that also houses our own architectural studio.

The building consist of 3 layers of 50 meters office floors supported by a core wall. Underneath the floors were the terrain defines an opening, a restaurant is placed towards the street. In the slope a parking garage and wine retailer is located. The building is formed with a high degree of flexibility and interaction between the floors, which enhances meeting situations between different users of the building. The individual floors are designed as open, flexible working environments with all service functions integrated as a single architectural element in the eastern facade of the building.

The project itself is a 1:1 realisation of the architecture and challenges of the office SLETH as both landowner, developer and architects – based on the potential of Sonnesgade.

Sonnesgade 11 was nominated for the Mies van der Rohe Award 2017.
