Overview

The international architecture competition to design Oslo’s new main library was won by Atelier Oslo in collaboration with Lundhagem in 2009. The librarians wanted a house that would inspire visitors to explore all the new facilities and activities a modern library can offer.

This motivated us to create an open and intriguing building in which you are constantly invited around the next corner, to discover new places. The project was completed in 2020 and named the world’s best public library in 2021.
