Mjøstårnet in Brumunddal was designed by Voll Arkitekter for AB Invest, with the timber structure by Moelven Limtre. It was completed in March 2019, and the text gives no construction start. At completion it was described as the world's tallest wooden building, and Ascent MKE surpassed it in August 2022. The article names no architectural style.

The 18-story mixed-use building is 280 feet (85.4 m) tall and holds a hotel, apartments, offices, a restaurant and common areas. A swimming pool sits in an adjacent first-floor extension. The combined floor area is about 11,300 square meters.

Load-bearing parts are glued laminated timber. Stairwells, elevator shafts and balconies are cross-laminated timber, and the top seven floors have concrete slabs for comfort and acoustics. Vienna's HoHo Tower, at 84 m and 24 stories, is a timber-concrete composite, not all-timber. The article gives no hours.
