A single-family house from the XVIII century, from which only the outer walls remain today, once occupied the project’s plot. The fifteen-meter tall walls, which enclosed 4 floors and multiple rooms, are now freestanding elements. Today they create within one single space – a void in the dense urban fabric.

The project is to understand the structural and spatial potential of the walls, not in the way they performed in the past, but in relation to the one space they provide all together.

Scattered along the Norwegian coastline are abandoned concrete structures left after WWII. Today their sculptural quality turns them into landmarks. 

This project aims to revitalize the bunkers and provide new visitor facilities that celebrate the natural environment. Places to feel and observe the weather and landscape – the focus being the views, the ever-changing light and the timeless quality of the horizon.

A connection between the existing underground network, the new development of Fornebubanen and a new underground tunnel through Oslo city center have the need for a two level underground station, with capacity to handle a large amount of people in transit. Majorstua metro station will become a major hub in an improved underground network

This project investigates strategies for improving the existing library. The original library areas are restored and the characteristic interior is preserved. The library programme is reorganised to maximise the potential within the existing building.  

A new, enclosed entrance courtyard creates a public space for exhibitions, meetings and quick, informal library browsing. The formerly closed book tower is transformed into a quiet zone for individual seeking and development of knowledge.

Smieøya has an industrial past, with one remaining brick building from 1881, abandoned and in poor condition. A sluice and hydropower plant provide still water to one side of the island and free-flowing water to the other. We want to transform this building into a new boathouse and tourist information, taking advantage of its close connection to the city centre and these different water conditions appropriate for rowing and kayaking.

Green infrastructure will be constructed for pedestrians and educators alike to get closer to ecology, with water playing a major role as tidal ponds with new marine life. By time the agency of flooding will shape the area and the established ecology of blue mussels in an artificial reef will perform as supportive cleaning actors. In this manner we can renegotiate that which has been taken from the sea by reclamation and landfill and evolve the area into a new nature.

Jeg ønsket å skape et bygg for å romme de tradisjonsrike seremoniene, for de som ikke tror. Et uvigslet rom, for de uten Gud. Et sted man ikke skal tilbe, ofre, eller møte en høyere makt, men som likevel skal være høytidelig. En verdig ramme for dåp, konfirmasjon, bryllup, og gravferd. Et sted for velkomst, feiring, og farvel. Et sted for ettertanke og ro. 

Treet som symbol for mennesket, vannet for livet, og horisonten som symbol for tiden. Arkitekturen skal gi et møte mellom disse, og skape et rom for mennesket i nærhet med sine nærmeste.

The exhibition space in the existing building is too narrow, and lacks room for experiencing the ships in their wholeness. Our strategy is to create spaces that complements Arnstein Arneberg’s architecture and simultaneously creates a more clear connection to the Viking traditions.

The project aims at finding value in some of those leftover spaces. It is investigating the biological potential in one site, and that site’s possibility to go from decay to growth. The project shows how small interventions may help nature to modify them naturally. 

The chosen site is located at the harbor edge, specifically a formerly very active intersection of roads and views. The harbor garden will serve as a reminder of the decay that has happened, but also turn a decayed area into a living biological zone.

The hostel concept Nui from Japan has now established Nui Oslo in the heart of Grünerløkka. The word “Nui” means hand-sewing in Japanese and reflects the project’s architectural discourse between the program and the various physical elements; the existing buildings, the new additional buildings and the adjacent urban spaces. The project provides a variety of affordable “homes” away from home for all kinds of guests. In addition, the hostel features a food court, a cafe and a bar, a comic book library, and a gallery on the ground floor.
