Opera House World Cultural Building of the Year 2008 Mies van der Rohe award; the European Union’s prize for contemporary architecture 2009 The book conveys the fascinating story of how Norway got an opera house of its own. The book brings you close to the comprehensive process that led to the finished house, the greatest mainland project in Norway in recent history. The opera house is presented in such a way that you will both gain insight into the ideas behind Snøhettas architecture and receive a guided tour of the finished building. You will learn about the advanced stage technology and the electronics of this, the most modern of opera houses. You will be let in on the secret behind its acclaimed acoustics. The house in itself is extraordinary. It is a piece of world architecture, located on the water’s edge in a small country on the periphery of the European culture scene. Foreign specialists and foreign media are full of praise, regarding both the building’s architecture and its qualities as an art scene. Among many prizes, it was awarded the prestigious Mies van der Rohe award; the European Union’s prize for contemporary architecture 2009, and has been named winner in the culture category as «World Cultural Building of the Year 2008» at the World Architecture Festival in Barcelona.

press and the opera house I am in love. She’s Norwegian, gorgeous, full of fun, yet with surprising hidden depths. Quite literally so, since her lower limbs are permanently submerged in the sea. No, she’s not a mermaid. She’s the new Oslo Opera House, an amazing marble and granite vision that rises out of the fjord like a giant ice floe. Richard Morrison, The Times The Oslo opera house is a powerful and beautiful statement, radiant with music and song, one that announces Norway’s arrival as a cultural centre. Most of all, it’s a building to be shared: anyone who travels to Oslo will want to see, and climb, Snøhetta’s marble mountain. Jonathan Glancey, The Guardian In Oslo ließ der Staat ein neues Kunstwerk entstehen, wie man es in Europa seit Jahren nicht gesehen hat. Nikolaus Bernau, Berliner Zeitung An opera house to rival Sydney’s. Michael Dervan, The Irish Times An architectural Masterpiece. Frede Vestergaard, Weekendavisen |
This is certainly Snøhetta’s most significant project since the library in Alexandria. Peter Kelly, Blueprint Magazine The new Oslo Opera House is a monumental architectural statement for Norway, providing a glamorous new home for the National Opera and Ballet and a striking public plaza overlooking the Oslofjord. Terri Peters, ArchitectureWeek Snøhetta heightens experiential and theatrical moments in its design for the National Opera of Norway in Oslo. Peter MacKeith, Architectural Record The Norwegian Opera & Ballet roof is the most visited tourist attraction in Norway, and one of the most famous in Europe, even though it was opened as late as April 2008. Visit Oslo The New Opera House Oslo is a spectacular fusion of landscape and architecture, urbanism and the art of opera…, …the design demonstrates how architecture can add exponential value to what ultimately might have been a simple yet highly functional container for performance. Bruce Kuwabara, Creative Class |
