Taubanesentralen (the ropeway hub) is a listed monument situated in Longyearbyen, conveying the history of a coal mining community in the Arctic. It was constructed in the late 1950s and used to transport kibbles with coal from the mines in the mountains where it was collected and passed on to the port and out to the world. The industry was in many ways constructed around the ropeway hub. Taubanesentralen is a purely practical installation, most likely shaped without thought for the esthetics.

House for All is a place for secular and inter-religious ceremonies and learning. Its architecture is an expression of unity, a volume of intertwined sequences of public and private spaces within the building. It is an exploration of spatial organization and the experience it engenders.

The lawn is one of the most common surfaces in urban areas. It is so frequently used that we often do not even notice that they are there, under our feet or alongside us as we walk. This project seeks to question why and how we maintain our lawns, and explore alternative maintenance scenarios for a group of lawns in Stovner, a borough in Groruddalen, Oslo.

The Semipalatinsk test site, also known as the Polygon, was the primary testing venue for the Soviet nuclear weapons. This crippled land is associated with the tragedy of about 1.2 million people. The aim of the project is to reveal the wounds of this territory, to let the ground tell its story: what has happened to it and what will continue to happen in the next 20, 400, 1000 years until radioactive particles break down, which will never happen totally. The voice should be as strong and as prominent that it would be notable even from the sky.

Taking care of an apple tree is a dedicated practice. It requires knowledge
about tree care, tools, timing, pollinators, and its vulnerabilities. There are
many apple tree types with interesting forms and colours, both singularly
and in an orchard.
It is not an ordinary tree, it needs love.
This is why apple trees are not often in parks.
But, what if someone wants to take care of it? Is there place for it then?
In the 1900s Oslo had 200,000 apple trees in farms, villas, allotment

“Framnesparken”  ser på hvordan økologiske prosesser i nord kan bli til inspirasjon for pedagogiske og rekreasjonelle programmer. Parken er et transformasjonsprosjekt av den gamle Narvik lufthavn som ligger på Framneslia, Narvik. Sprengmassen som danner grunnlaget for rullebanen  ble transportert og utgravd fra Narvik Havn sent på 1960-tallet for å utvide jernbanesporet og tilrettelegge for ny havn for utskiping av jernmalm fra gruvene i Kiruna.

Iceland is a country of renewable energy. 85% of the energy supply is through hydropower and geothermal sources. In 2009, Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Plant was opened. Harnessing the power of Jökulsá á Dal glacial river, the project is the largest of its kind in Iceland(690 MW).

We only know what we see, and we tend to only see what we know. A new description of the fjord is critical, but since scientific exploration underwater is limited by current technology, we cannot rely only on it. We need to also explore the subjective, the imaginary, to understand what is at stake.

The cruise ship will act as a site, the passengers as audience. The design is a surface, a space and an event on the roof deck. It uses a gigantic plastic balloon to stimulate the imaginary.

The diploma is two apartment buildings in Oslo. They are situated next to a collection of free standing urban houses. A close clustering of buildings creates a dynamic urban situation. They are neither perimeter-block or free-standing block, but embody certain qualities of each of these typologies. 

The focus is on privacy of the interior, on collective spaces of apartments and the city between two buildings.
