A photographic account of the creation of Vestre and BIG’s widely heralded green factory in Norway
Factories are virtually synonymous with pollution. In 2021, the Norwegian furniture manufacturer Vestre decided to demonstrate that alternative models are possible. With the acclaimed Danish architecture firm Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), they devised plans for a green factory deep in the Norwegian forests. With the aim of achieving BREEAM certification and also to create a public space, a challenging yet exciting journey toward building "the world’s most sustainable factory" began. The result is The Plus―a building that has been unanimously heralded in the architectural press.
Making The Plus leads readers through the construction process of this extraordinary building, which from its inception was documented by the renowned photographer Einar Aslaksen. The book also shows how architecture, industry and public space can be approached as a single entity toward a sustainable future.
