Project Background

The construction of the The New Parliament Building in Valleta, Malta is hoping to bring a new, vibrant urbanity to the city and act as a place where both visitors and Maltese Citizens can acquire an understanding of the Maltese nation. The New Parliament Building is made of two huge volumes of stone, one housing mainly the chamber and speakers office and the other containing all the administrative offices for parliament members, ministers, the Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition. One of the most important concepts with the building is its functionality with regards to energy. It is hoped that this will be an excellent chance to create a “zero (co2) emission” building. The architect on this project was world famous Renzo Piano.
