Description
|
| Kristin Jarmund - Arkitekter
explain on their website that, "...
The building is placed on one of the
capital’s most prominent corners,
directly facing Oslo’s most important
and central public space – with the
Parliament and the National Theatre in
close proximity. .... The intention of
the design has been to give the new
building a contemporary, as well as a
timeless expression, interacting with
the complex urban context in which the
building is situated, creating an
architectural dialogue between the
present and the past. The neighbouring
1890’s building has been fully
restored and integrated with the new
structure. Stortingsgata 6
received an honourable mention in
the Norwegian Government Building
Award, 2006." |
