The Twist Museum in Norway
The Twist Museum in Norway
The Twist Museum in Norway is the first project of its kind in Norway, The Twist, which passes through the meandering river Randelsva, as a suitable bridge installed in the middle, to form a new journey and art piece inside the Kistefos Sculpture Park in Jevnaker, Norway The project forms part of an industrial museum, And a sculpture park in Levencar municipality, 80 km north of Oslo.
It is worth noting that Norway has many different tourist attractions, including historical and archaeological or different religious landmarks, in addition to the presence of theaters and museums, or buildings of a different architectural nature, everything warrants for a moment that this city contains everything that could be Attractive to tourists, especially as its countryside is characterized by architecture that approaches imagination and historic houses since the nineteenth century, which inspires you with the atmosphere of old films, and since the city is characterized by dozens of museums, then when visiting the city of Oslo it is necessary to visit at least five museums, including: museum and park Vigeland, Holmenkollen Ski Museum, M. Seven newspapers Viking, the National Museum, which is located downtown Oslo. In this article, we mention the most recent construction of museums in Norway in terms of sophistication and architectural prosperity, and it is considered a new architectural breakthrough that transformed Norway into a unique architectural laboratory, the Twist Museum, which was established by the new Kistefos Foundation for Contemporary Art, which covers an area of 1000 square meters, as it is the infrastructure to link the two banks of a river In the woods, to complete the cultural path through the largest carved garden in northern Europe.
The Twist museum was built around the historic pulp mill, a 90-degree distorted ray near the center to create a sculpted form that stretches over Randselva, visitors to the site including world artists including Anish Kapoor, Olafur Eliasson, Linda Bingles Yueyue Kusama, Jeep Heine and Fernando Butero among others at the museum. The Twist is scheduled to complete the technical tour. As a second bridge and a natural extension of the park, the Scheduled Museum doubles the space of the Kistefos Gallery.
There is a slight development in the building size of the bridge by lifting from the low-forested bank of the river in the south to the hillside area in the north. As a continuous path in the landscape, both sides of the building serve as the main entrance.
The building can be accessed from two sides, the southern one, where visitors enter through a high-rise area, with a line of sight extending up to the northern entrance, where the visitor enters a panoramic area with scenes overlooking the large windmill and the surrounding views.
From the southern entrance to the Stranded Museum, visitors cross a 16-meter aluminum-covered steel bridge to reach a double-elevated area with clear views to the northern end, similarly connected to a 9-meter pedestrian bridge.
The twin-curved curved museum architecture consists of 40 cm straight aluminum panels arranged like a collection of books, slightly transformed to a large extent in an exciting movement. The same principle is used inside with wide 8 cm wide white strips of fir covering the floor, wall and ceiling as one standard background for short-term Norwegian and international Kistefos exhibitions. Either way, visitors experience the quirky gallery as if walking through the shutter.
On the northern end, there is a full height glass wall that provides panoramic views of the pulp mill and the tapers of the river with curving up to form a wide strip of 25 cm in length. Because of the curved shape of the glass windows, the daylight group entering the museum creates three distinct exhibits: a spacious naturally lit gallery with panoramic views on the north side; a long dark gallery with industrial lighting on the south side; and, in between, a sculptural space with a twisted fragment From the ceiling light.
The ability to segment, divide, or combine exhibition spaces creates flexibility in Kistefos art programming. The glass staircase leads to the lower level of the curved museum in the northern bridge of the river, where the underside of the aluminum in the building becomes the roof of the basement and lounge area. A full-width glass wall brings visitors closer to the river below, enhancing the overall immersion experience of staying in idyllic forests outside Oslo.
It is striking, despite Norway’s forest environment, where the forests cover 38% of the country’s area, that the architects ’intelligence could create an architectural theater from them. Architects, including Wood, have always played an important role in Norwegian architecture. But also in large projects. No other Norwegian architect has mastered this material better than Helen and Hard. The Library of Venice was opened in October 2011 that dazzles architecture enthusiasts around the world. The library, in a small town in southern Norway, is a great example of modern wood architecture – elegant, functional and sustainable. The interior is particularly stunning, with its 27 wooden ribs multiplying as shelves and benches, allowing in plenty of natural light.
