Grace Review by Thomas McQuillan of two pavilions in Sverre Fehn’s Storhamarlåven project

Villa Kråkenes, Oslo. Knut Hjeltnes has transformed the interiors of Villa Kråkenes, a 500 sq.m. villa from 1961. The transformation is a balance between being historically correct and correcting history.

"Tracing a timber breakthrough"

Author: Marius Nygaard, Catherine Sunter and Ona Katrina Flindall

Norway´s first multi-storey student housing project built from Cross Laminated Timber (CLT), the Palisaden, was constructed in 2013. Three years on more than 80% of student housing in Norway is built from timber. When the extension to Moholt student village by MDH arkitekter is completed in December this year, it will be the largest use of CLT in Europe. Following the struggles of timber to infiltrate a conservative construction industry, why and how did this breakthrough occur and what can we learn from it?
