Sankt Olavs Plass Analysis_Urban Preservation_Spring2020
Publication from AHO's Urban Preservation Course Spring 2020. It presents a study of the changing narrative of St Olav's Place in the Centre of Oslo, undertaken by an international consultancy team of students comprising - Eudine Blancardi, Félix Blanchard, Kostas Argyriou, Kristofer Mattsson and Julian Riise. The project started as a normal study with community engagement and installations on site and then owing to Corona Virus, the team had to rethink the project and complete the study as a virtual project. The team were assisted by course leader Tom Davies, Viksjø expert- Even Smith Wergeland, community artists- Kim Frydenlund Grane & Torgeir Stige, Byantikvaren's Marte Muan Sæther, Post-war construction expert- Barbara Ascher, Norberg Schulz expert- Beata Labuhn, and Oxford Archaeology's Ben Ford. There are plans to realise the different 'chairs' in the report as experiences at SOP, which you can do right now by taking the publication to site and trying it out yourself. Enjoy!

«Hey! Do you know who I am?
My name is ErlingViksjø, I am an architect. Together with engineer Inge A.
Dahl, I designed Domus Nova which stands in front of you. The building
was completed in 1969 and hosted the Oslo Health Council (Helserådet)
for a long time. Today Domus Nova is called the St. Olav Quarter and is
occupied by the University of Oslo’s Faculty of Law. At the corner of No.
5 stands the 12.2 metre high sculpture Tetraeder (Tetrahedrons) built
in natural concrete and erected in 1969 by Spanish-Norwegian sculptor
Rámon Isern.
