Proposal for Campus Forus
Stavanger, Norway
A Zero Carbon development at Campus Forus in
Stavanger has been developed to respond to the
competition brief for a new sustainable development
to be integrated within the existing commercial and
business district in Stavanger. The masterplan has
been developed to embrace the City of Stavanger
‘Cities of the Future’ strategy and incorporates
key transportation initiatives, water and waste
management, alternative energy generation and
distribution and smart city technology.
New commercial offices and hotels have been
incorporated on the Forusbeen and Grenseveien sites
within the new masterplan. The workspace design
within the offices has used Adaptive Thermal Comfort
criteria for the indoor climate design to allow significant
energy savings to be achieved. The sustainability
plan has been developed around BREEAM, with NOR
Outstanding being the target.

It is proposed that the Zero Carbon project should
become a demonstration project across the Nordics
of best practice regeneration, allowing for organic
site growth and future development, leading to a self
sustaining community with net zero carbon emissions.
