Ingunn in Oslo

My beloved Oslo - The Tiger house

Many people in Oslo are interested in architecture. Today it was a display of 11 buildings and landscape installation nominated to the Oslo City Architecture Award 2023. 

This is the Tiger House, that is not one of the finalists. It's built in an old industry area with quite a lot of noise. It's climate friendly and social sustainable with top roof gardens with hammock and vegetables, zen gardens, community space and so on. They have also planted many fruit trees and berry bushes free for all instead of traditional planting. The jury also like the pathways made by glass to reduce noise and increase light and prolong outside activities. 
I think I have to visit it to see if I like it or not. The photo of it doesn't appeal to me, but the solutions the choose seem very interesting.

One of the finalist is an office building that looks like an ordinary building with big windows, but the brilliance is that is all moduls that can be moved to any other space without a trace that it's been a building there.
