After almost two months, the Oslo Architecture Trienniale is now entering its closing week.
If you still haven’t visited our main exhibition The Library, the multimedia installation Factory of the Future, or taken part in the audio walk Place Listening, this is your last chance! In addition, we have six individual events ranging from a panel discussion, a seminar, workshops, curator’s tours of The Library and a public evaluation meeting.
We hope to see you there!
The Library 26 September–24 November The National Museum – Architecture, Bankplassen 3, Oslo
Is there an alternative to today's urban development? The exhibition The Library explores a world where quality of life and the environment are placed ahead of economic growth.
What if the focus of urban living was not productivity but play? The audio walk Place Listening explores how playful urban listening can expand the relationships between people and the places they inhabit.
Audio walks in the closing weekend:
23 November, 11:00–12:30 and 15:00–16:30

Factory of the Future 26 September–24 November

Can you imagine what it is like to live in the neighbourhoods of Grønland and Bjørvika in the post-oil era? In Factory of the Future, we look at how design and architecture can contribute to creating a sustainable future through performance and "future scenario thinking".
