The Norwegian Opera & Ballet, Oslo


The Norwegian National Assembly voted in 1999 that the operahouse was to be built in Bjørvika, on the seafront at the Oslo fjord. In this way the building would be the foundation for the urban redevelopment of this area of the capital.
The government wished that the Norwegian Opera & Ballet should be a monumental building which would mark Norway as a cultural nation as well as highlighting the social and cultural importance of The Norwegian Opera & Ballet. The Opera House building should be a landmark within architecture, construction, use of materials and technical solutions.
