Description

Manufacturing a green future

Industrial production is considered one of the biggest sources of pollution in the world. In 2020, Norwegian furniture manufacturer Vestre decided to prove that a different future is possible. Together with architects from the Danish Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), Vestre drew up plans for a green factory deep in the Norwegian forests: Making the Plus not only takes you through the construction process of the world's most sustainable furniture factory, documented by renowned photographer Einar Aslaksen.

It also broadens our view on how architecture, industry, nature, and the public space have to be completely intertwined moving toward a sustainable future.
