Old Aker Church is the oldest standing building
in Oslo. The construction of the present
church dates back to early 12th century, and
was allegedly built by King Olav Sverre. The
grounds on which it stands on were originally
likely the place of the regional thing. 1861 the
church was renovated by the architects H.E.
Schirmer an W. von Hanno who also added
a new central tower, replacing the old one. It
was constructed on the old farm of Aker that
stretched all the way down to the fiord, also
giving the name to the fortress situated there.
AKERHAUS FORTRESS, 1290
Vertical axis between
Akershus Fortress and
Old Aker Church
Originally it was constructed as a medieval
castle and strategically situated on top of
the headland of Aker, Akershus Fortress
is the most significant fortress in Norway.
Construction was first started in 1299 by king
Håkon V Magnusson. In the 17th century it was
rebuilt into a rennaisance castle surrounded
by a bastion fortress. It was used for military
purposes up until the 20th century. Parts of
the facility was also used as a prison. Today it
houses the Ministry of Defence, and after the
2011 terrorist attacks, the Prime Ministers Office.
OSLO CATHEDRAL, 1697
Oslo Cathedral, former Our Saviour’s Church,
is the main church for the Church of Norway
Diocese of Oslo, as well as the parish church
for downtown Oslo. The cathedral was
built 1694-1697 under king Christian IV. The
Cathedral was rebuilt between 1848-1850
after a plan by the German architect, Alexis
de Chateauneuf which was completed by H.E.
Schirmer an W. von Hanno, the same architect
who did the reconstruction of Old Aker
Church. The Norwegian Royal Family and the
Norwegian Government use the Cathedral for
public events.
NATIONAL HOSPITAL, 1826
PRE-19th CENTURY
With epidemics and wars around Europe during
the 1800s, the need for hospitals became
urgent. In 1807, the architects Jens Bang and
Johan Raphael Pousette built a military hospital
at the site. The first building in the new Hospital
Quarter was completed in 1826 by Christian
Heinrich Grosch. Because of limited resources,
the next buildings in the quarter were not
completed before 1845. By that time, both
population grew and new technologies were
developed, making the new buildings in the
Hospital Quarter rapidly outdated.

ROYAL PALACE, 1849
The Royal Palace of Oslo was built for the king
Karl III Johan in the years 1824 to 1849. The
design was made by architect Hans Ditlev
Franciscus von Linstow. The castle is situated
on the Bellevue height, surrounded by the
Royal Palace Park, in the end of the axis of Karl
Johan parade street. The palace is the main
residence for the Norwegian Royal Family.

Hammersborg was in the 1800s an area for
the farmers of Christiania. Hay and grain
were stored in barns, and the families were
living in small two-floor wooden houses. The
Norwegian State decided to build a church
at the top of the hill and, in 1849, after 24
submitted works, Alexis de Chateauneuf’s
neo-gothic church was picked by the jury.
Chateauneuf’s Trinity Church was completed
in 1858.
STORTING BUILDING, 1886
Stortinget is the Parliament of Norway
Building, opened in 1866. is the supreme
legislature of Norway, established in 1814
by the Constitution of Norway. In 1855 there
was an architectural competition for the new
parliament building which was won by the
Swedish architect Victor Langlet. Langlets
design was original and innovative to the
general parliament architecture at the time
with its inviting form marking the open
democracy and the connection to the people.
GAMLEBLOKKA, 1874
19th CENTURY
In 1874, a committee decided to build a new
Government in Norway. Stener Lenschow’s
project “Kosmopolit” won, a H-formed complex
in neo-Renaissance style. Henrik Bull’s “Blaa
Stjerne” came second, and they were both
asked to develop their project further. In 1898
Lenschow was named the winner, but soon
became ill, so Bull was asked to take over
Lenschow’s project. However, because of the
1899 crash Bull had to cut down costs, interrupting the constrcution of the whole complex;
only the south wing was built.

ARNE GARBORGS PLASS, 1936
Completion of the
Government quarters
Named after the Norwegian writer of the
national idiom, Arne Garborgs Plass was
created in 1936. Originally paved and
meant to be a pedestrian area the plass
was created in the area formed by the
separation of two roads in Oslo’s main Ring
Road. When the Oslo Main Fire and Rescue
Headquarters was built, the space became
only a discharge point for fire trucks. When
Erling Viksjø placed a lid over the plass he
intended to typographically connect the
buildings of the Government Quarter with
the Deichmanske Library and St. Stephen’s
HØYBLOKKA, 1957
Previously serving as the site forNorway’s
Rikshospitalet, Hammersborg was slated
to become the location of Norwegian
government in 1874. In 1939, Erling Viksjø
won the competition to design the new
Government Quarter with modern buildings
that would replace the 19th century
Rikshospitalet. During construction of the
Høyblokka in 1957 the buildings were kept
in place and the new high-rise was built
among the still functioning ministry buildings.
Between 1954 and 1962 all the buildings of
the Rikshospitalet were demolished to make
Y-BLOKKA, 1969
21st CENTURY
As a part of the project for a new
Gouvernment Quarter of Norway, plans for
the Y-block was already made in 1950’s by
Erling Viksjø. The building has it’s name from
it’s clear Y-shape, which it was given to create
a seperation between the Trinity Church and
the Deichman Library, two buildings of two
very distinct architectural styles. The building
has the same raster facade as the H-block,
and it was the architects intention that they
belong together. The Y-block also contains
integrated art of sandblasted concrete, made
by Pablo Picasso and Carl Nesjar.

Acid washed surface
Born on July 4, 1 910 Erling Viksjø is undoubtedly Norway’s most
famous and influential post-war architect having designed some of
the most culturally important in the nation. Viksjø was among the first
students to receive a modernist education at the Norwegian Institute
of Technology, from where he graduated in 1935. The following
year in 1936 Viksjø was hired by Ove Bangs, a very forward thinking
architect much in touch with international trends and modern
political architecture, whom undoubtedly left a great mark on Viksjø
aesthetically and intellectually. It was while working for Bangs and
probably under his mentorship that Viksjø entered into and won the
competition for the design of the Government Quarter in 1939 but
with the Nazi invasion the following year all plans were put on hold.
Viksjø would take over Ove Bang’s practice after the latter’s death
in 1942 but because of the “radical” architectural philosophy and
aesthetics of the firm Viksjø would be arrested and interred in a Nazi
concentration camp until the end of the war. In 1946 Viksjø left his
partners at Ove Bang’s office and opened his own practice which is
still in existence today under the leadership of his son Per Viksjø.

These projects served as inspiration to Viksjø and are remarkably similar to
the Government Quarter in Oslo. Much of Viksjø´s inspiration comes from
Le Corbusier’s principles of architecture. Both the ministry of education and
UNESCO headquarters were supervised by Le Corbusier during the design
and building prcess. Below is a comparison of the Ministry in Rio de Janeiro

With the tunnel system all government buildings are connected in under
ground. The rest of the relations are happening above. There are a few
different situations, caused by several types of houses and streets at
different places. For example from Youngstorget you can see the top of the
H-Block. Between the H-Block and S-Block is an open space, but it is not
really connected. The square in front of the Y-Block is hardly recognizable
from somewhere else. To get from the H-Block to the R5-building
pedestrians have to walk a detour.
N
EN
One of the main problems of the Government Quarter is the lack of space.
High density and narrow streets prevent a flow of pedestrians through it.
Squares are split by streets or buildings. Government buildings are not
accessible for pedestrians. That is the reason why those usually have to
walk around the buildings and visual contact is not guaranteed. Moreover
the traffic system also does not support the flow.

A permanent memorial will be

The concept study concludes that
the difference in costs between the
rehabilitation of the H-block and
equivalent new construcion accounts
for about 400 million nok, and for the
Y-block approximately 250 million.
Adding to this, the Y-block is less
space efficient than the H-block.
Former Prime Minister Willoch
The former Prime Minister’s
statements are mostly concerning
safety basis of the H-block
rehabilitation. According to him,
Grubbegata should have been closed
earlier.
Former Minister Storberget
Storberget speaks out mostly about
over security matters, being skeptical
to move back to the H-block.
Minister Aasrud
Aasrud has made statements about
the extensive damage that the
Government Quarter received and
about the possibility of its relocation
and redesign.
Paul E. Lødøen
Development Company, Oslo
Even though he has made statements
both for and against demolition,
Lødøen believes that it can be twice
as expensive to refurbish the three
buildings H-block, R4 and S-block
rather than building again.
“[H-Block and Y=block] are
quite unlike anything that
had been built in Norway. (...)
The Two buildings contrast
with each other and work
together to create rich and
beautiful urban spaces.”
“[H-Block] represetnts
something of Norway and
the ciapital’s identity; the
irrepressible and relentless
in our democracy that bombs
cannot destroy.”
“ [G-block, H-block, and
Y-block] Through the work
and overall compostition of
buildings, plants and artwork
above and below ground,
encircling urban and dense
joints with the street around,
forming a whole that makes
the area unique. It’s the
G-block, H-block and Y-block
together that provides the
historical time depth.”
“[...] In Nine Points on
Monumentality, Sigfried
Giedion argued for a
collaboration between the
arts, to create monuments
that could satisfy people’s
basic need for symbols.”
“Erling Viksjo’s government
buildings in Norway’s capital

This concept (as the old district)
can be said to have the qualities
of an urban “open field” in the
city since a lot of the existing
buildings are reused.
In this concept the district is
more closed of from the city
because. Even though some of
the existing buildings are reused
the program is placed in fewer,
bigger volumes that in the old
district.
The placement of the program
in concept 3 (like concept 2) is
closed off from the city because
it is placed in few, big volumes.
Concept 4 is the most extreme
suggestion for the new
Government District and one
can argue that it is more a
fortress than a part of the city
fabric.
This is suggestion is the chosen concept for the new
Government District and what that the Government has decided
to develop further. Because of the concentrated placement of
the program on the right side of the square a “wall” is created
between Youngstorget and the square on the other side of the
Government District.

Security
New construction can ensure security
in a completely different way than
rehabilitation.
Security
The H-block has high cultural value
that can be only be addressed by
rehabilitation.
Cost
It is twice as expensive to rehabilitate
that to rebuild.
Damage
The damage is too extensive for
rehabilitation of all the damaged
buildings.
New Requirements
Energy and environmental
requirements can hardly be
addressed by rehabilitation.
Architecture
H-Block is a “monster monument.”
Symbolism
It is necessary to have a more modern
design that symbolizes transparency
over democracy.
Cost
Rehabilitation is the most affordable
solution.
Art
The mural of Nesjar and Picasso can
only exist within the building.

Architecture
H-Block is the highest representative
of modernists architecture in Norway
and a monument to social democracy.
Symbolism
The H-block is an important
monument of the terror that struck
Norway. Its rehabilitation would be a
symbol of survivial of the attack.

REPRESENTASJON
REPRESENTATION
Regjeringskvartalet er et område med lang politisk historie og er symbolsk svært viktig for Oslo. I
verdenssammenheng fremstår det som unikt på grunn av sammenstillingen av flere bygninger med
politisk makt, fra pressen til fagforeningene og til kirken. Som sådan er dette monumentale feltet et
mikrokosmos av det norske demokratiet. Det er åpent og tilgjengelig, strategisk plassert i sentrum
av Oslo og med potensiale til å bli et symbol på mangfold.
The government district of Oslo – Regjeringskvartalet – is a remarkable space of political symbolism.
If compared to equivalent sites across the world, it stands out as exceptional. The collection of
governance buildings define an open field of monuments, with institutions that represent every major
aspect of Norwegian society, from the press to the unions and to the church. As such, this monumental
field is a microcosm of Norwegian democracy. It is open and accessible, strategically located in the
centre of Oslo and with the potential to become a symbol of diversity.
INNVIRKNING PÅ BYEN
BENEFITS FOR THE CITY
Utfordringen ved å bygge nye kontorer for departementene er å imøtekomme en høy grad av
sikkerhet, men samtidig ivareta en åpenhet i byen. Vi mener at kilden til utfordringen ligger på
bakkeplan, derfor er vår strategi å se på denne som et handlingsrom for en framtidig løsning.
Vi ønsker å aktivere byrommene mellom de politiske bygningene og videreføre den historiske
strukturen. I møtet mellom den sterkt trafikkerte ringveien og de myke trafikantene oppstår det
kompliserte kryssforbindelser. Mangel på gode forbindelser isolerer området fra konteksten. Som et
resultat fremstår de historiske bygningene som fragmenter, uten relasjon til hverandre eller til byen.
Området gjenstår tomt, ugjennomtrengelig og utrygt – selve motsatsen til demokratiet.
The challenge of building new offices for the government ministries is to accommodate a large amount
of secure area within the site, while also maintaining the historical value of the existing structures
and activating the spaces in between them. Therefore, our strategy identifies the ground as both the
source of current problems on the site and the place of possibility for the future. The collision of the
scale of the Ring 1 highway with the rhythm of pedestrians in the city complicates the crossing of the
area, isolating it from its context. As a result, the historic buildings appear as fragments, disarticulated
from each other and from the city. The site remains vacant, impenetrable and unsafe – the opposite of
democracy.
OPPLEVELSE
EXPERIENCE
Ved å formgi bakkeplanet etter sammenkoblingene i byen og tilgjengeliggjøre det for myke
trafikanter, forsøker dette forslaget å forsterke opplevelsen av det offentlige – både for
regjeringsansatte, besøkende og lokale innbyggere. Det tilbyr grønne områder samt kommersielle
og kulturelle program. Gjenoppbyggingen av bakkeplanet gir de eksisterende bygningene en
forsterket rolle ved å konstruere et sammenhengende tykt lag som inneholder regjeringsprogram
under bygulvet. Dette laget muliggjør en fri parallell kommunikasjon både mellom
regjeringsbyggene og på bakkenivå. Ved å benytte seg av arealet under bakken og dermed spre
arealbehovet for 2025-fasen utover anlegget, kan høyden på de nye tårnene reduseres slik at de
er sammenlignbare med Høyblokka. Snarere enn å være forstyrrende, skaper den resulterende
høyden en hensynsfull fortsettelse av horisonten i Oslo.
Det nye bakkeplanet er et rutenett av stier og grøntområder. Organiseringen framgår av geometrien
til de eksisterende bygningene, og skaper egenartede romlige forhold. Et nytt offentlig nivå
kobles på tvers av området og gir en direkte passasje fra øst til vest, og skaper samtidig trygghet
ved å etablere synlighet og klar orientering. For å imøtekomme påkrevd program, etableres en
sammenstilling av tårn som en løpende sekvens av bygninger. De flettes inn, ikke bare med byen,
men også med eksisterende bygninger ved å fortsette den etablerte geometrien i området. Som en
videreføring av Høyblokkas formspråk, har de vekselvis åpne bakkeplan- og toppetasjer for å skape
synlighet både fra bakkeplan og fra byen i større kontekst.
By articulating the ground to the city and opening it to the pedestrians, this proposal enhances the
experience of the public – government workers, visitors and local residents. It provides green areas
as well as commercial and cultural programme. In the manner of a campus, the reworked ground gives
a greater role to the existing buildings, thickened below to provide areas for government use. By
creating underground space and spreading the area across the site for the 2025 phase, the scheme
reduces the height of the towers so they are comparable to Hoyblokka. Rather than being disruptive,
the resulting height creates a considerate continuation with the skyline of Oslo.
The new ground plane is a grid of paths and greenery. Their organisation emerges from the geometry
of the existing buildings that create unique spatial conditions. A new public level connects across the
sire, allowing easy movement from east to west – a previously impossible option – and procuring
safety by establishing visibility and clear wayfinding. To accommodate the required programme, a
composition of towers creates a sequence of buildings that merge not only the site with the city but
also the existing buildings with the new ones. Learning from the shape of the Hoyblokka, they have
alternately open ground floors or upper floors to allow visibility, at pedestrian and urban levels.

LOWERING DENSITY
The proposal opens the ground to maximise urban connectivity. It
defines east-west axes that give a new character to the site, extending
Hammersborggata, Hospitalsgata, and Eva Kolstads gate for pedestrian
use. In the north-south direction, Grubbegata is extended to create a soft
limit that defines to the west the area of the new offices for government
use, and to the east cultural programme and amenities. Throughout
the site, the new continuous ground level accommodates commercial
facilities that act as destinations.

Grubbegata opprettholdes som forbindelse i retning nord-sør. Kobles på
eksisterende grøntdrag.
Forbindelsen i dagens situasjon er brutt med en overdekt trapp mellom
Grubbegata og Hammersborggata. Ved å stenge påkjøringsrampene til
Ring 1 og senke veien til samme nivå som ringveien møter hver side av
rampene, etableres et nytt gateløp på bakkeplan.

I eksisterende situasjon løper fotgjengerfeltet mellom øst og vest langs
en svært trafikkert vei under lokk. Passasjen oppleves mørk, støyende
og utrygg. Ved å fjerne lokket og senke Ring 1, gis det nytt liv til Arne
Garborgs plass.

I dagens situasjon er Y-blokka bygget inn i terrenget, og skaper derfor
en romlig barriere. Ved å fjerne lokket over Arne Garborgs plass og
skape fri passasje under den nordlige armen, brytes denne barrieren.
Slik skapes også flere passasjer mellom øst og vest, som gir aktivitet og
bevegelse over plassen.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN
The ground provides public gardens, pathways and hardscape
areas. Resolving current problems of disconnection, the ground
creates a sequence of spaces surrounded by programme that takes
into account seasons, time of the day, and connections to public
transport. According to the sun exposure, each garden is planted with
different species of flora. Some of these areas can be experienced
directly as open courtyards and others serve as visual attractions.
Their accessibility responds to the surrounding programme, creating
buffering zones that protects old and new buildings from potential
violence.

ACTIVATING HISTORY
The reuse of the structures of the past has a twofold goal. On one hand,
it releases historical layers into the present, reminding the visitors of the
growth of Norway through representative pieces of architecture. History
activates the site. On the other, it constitutes a strategy that optimises
resources and reduces time of construction. The reuse of buildings
creates less waste and minimises carbon emissions. Above all, it
preserves a non-renewable piece of cultural heritage. The opening of the
ground activates history.
