Daniel Libeskind, the award-winning founder of the studio, stated:

“Our goal was to create a symbol of modern architecture that could carry the essence of Vilnius’ Old Town into the future.”

“The building’s unique architecture will enrich the urban landscape of Konstitucijos Avenue and reflect the city’s ambition to embrace 21st-century architectural innovation while maintaining strong ties to the beauty of historical architecture.”
 
Daniel Libeskind, one of the world's most renowned architects, initially pursued a career in music but later abandoned it for architecture. After winning the competition to design the Jewish Museum in Berlin in 1989, Daniel and Nina Libeskind founded Studio Libeskind, which soon became one of the most prestigious architectural firms in the world. In 2003, the studio relocated to New York after Daniel Libeskind was appointed the master planner for the redevelopment of the World Trade Center.

 

AMONG SKYSCRAPERS, THE ROOFTOP BECOMES THE FIFTH ELEVATION

On the roof of the lower section, which serves as a multifunctional atrium, a photovoltaic installation has been planned, utilizing 500 m² of rooftop space. The aesthetics of the modules required customized color solutions and design details that fully align with the refined architectural aesthetics of the building.

VILNIUS CITY


The modern district of skyscrapers, ranging from 60 to 147 meters in height, has become a hallmark of Lithuania's capital. The Artery building, located in this area, stands at 84 meters tall with 20 floors. This skyscraper features unique architectural and engineering solutions. Numerous innovative technologies have been implemented to conserve and generate electricity, including a special elevator system and a photovoltaic power plant on the building's rooftop.

For the ARTERY investment, we supplied 499 m² of custom photovoltaic modules made of ESG VSG laminated tempered glass with ceramic printing. The laminated modules consist of two 8mm ESG glass panes, with photovoltaic cells and a laminating film placed between them. The color scheme and type of ceramic printing fully met the architects' guidelines and expectations.

The entire production process was carried out on our production lines. The investor received a BIPV installation with an output capacity of 55.3 kWp, generating 36 MWh of clean energy annually. The installation helps reduce the building’s carbon footprint by 6,500 kg of CO2 per year—an amount that would be absorbed by 160 trees.
