The most striking new construction in 2004!
Lately, the most eye-catching feature of the left bank of the River
Daugava is the emerging office building of Swedbank, standing up
tall and attractive over the river. An impression of upward
gravitation is achieved by the slight narrowing of the house as the
number of levels increase, as well as the sloping fasade solution,
visually reminiscent of a sail, and the closing peak. The fasade
glazing and environment layout elements visually link the building
to the surface of water of the River Daugava, thereby merging it
with the surroundings. The bank’s new building forms the new
outline of the left bank of the River Daugava, and symbolically
represents the successful economic development of Latvia.
