Exhibition of Munch/Stenersen Area and Deichman Axis Entries Opened in Oslo

Since March 12, the City of Oslo exhibits the 40 contributions for the Munch Area and the Deichman Axis architecture competition (previously on Bustler).

The list of invited architects includes names like Tadao Ando, Zaha Hadid, and Foreign Office Architects. Among the prequalified architects are Diller Scofido Renfro, Sauerbruch Hutton, and Kengo Kuma Associates.

The Munch Area will have the new Munch Museum with collection of the Stenersen Museum and the Deichman Axis with the Deichman Library. The site for the new buildings is in close proximity to Oslo’s highly awarded new Opera House by Snøhetta.
