Lidköping Police Building Proposal by LETH & GORI

By Bustler Editors|

Tuesday, Jan 3, 2012

Copenhagen architects LETH & GORI have shared with us their entry in the open competition for a new police headquarter and public parking facilities in Lidköping, Sweden.

Project Description from the Architects:

The project site is an open square on the border of Lidköping’s historical urban plan from 1672. The site is an important entrance point to the historic city and one of the design objectives of the competition was how to emphasize this.

LETH & GORI’s proposal is a hybrid project that balances between building and urban space. The police building is lifted and perforated to create a series of different public spaces. In addition the building integrates four existing buildings that are programmed with functions related to the local community. This transforms the traditionally closed Police Building into a building that supports and celebrates the local community and the life in the city.
