City of Oslo
A civic landmark for Oslo, bringing together exhibition, performance, education, and community in a single generous building.
The Urban Cultural Center is located at the junction of three neighborhoods that were historically disconnected by industrial infrastructure. The program combines a 400-seat flexible theater, gallery spaces, a public library branch, maker studios, and a rooftop garden, organized around a central atrium. The facade is composed of a dense pattern of perforated aluminum panels, whose depth and angle vary to control solar gain while admitting diffuse light into the interior.
