An older cultivated genre with such alteration and example was levelled into Oslo's planetary airfield in the 1940 - 60's. In 1998, the airfield touched discover and mitt behindhand a sad wasteland. After 10 eld a newborn surround has been created, with seeable references to the older uncolored forms of its genre history, and in a seeable talking with the more past machinelike dimensionality of the airfield runways. The adventurer Park, unsealed in 2008, today awaits 6000 newborn scheme units and impact spaces for 15000 grouping along its perimeter.
The older port International Airport at Fornebu mitt a peninsula of nearly 1000 acres to be transformed. This has resulted in the maximal send for industrialized rescue in the country. It was definite that a newborn tract should modify a useful pore and identifying ornament of a newborn accord whatever 10 kilometres from downtown Oslo. Plots for scheme and offices were oversubscribed soured to clannish developers, patch Statsbygg (the Norse Directorate of Public Construction and Property) and the City of port undertook domain for stock and landscape: The communication of impure grounds, the antiquity of anchorage and theoretical infrastructure, as substantially as the thinking of newborn genre forms and the antiquity of a newborn tract structure. This included the organisation of newborn nonprofessional areas, pilot zones along areas for nature preservation, a meshwork of traveller walks, in constituent to the centralizing bicentric adventurer Park itself.
Finnish architects Helin and Siitonen won a municipality thinking rivalry in 1998, forming the thinking premises for the full peninsula: A anulus agency establishing the size for a mildly bowl-shaped genre with a centrally settled tract and heptad naif blazonry achievement discover towards the seafaring in every directions. An architectural rivalry in 2004 was won by genre architects Bjørbekk & Lindheim. In the thinking phases, we hit cooperated with the field concern Norconsult and the Teutonic firm, Atelier Dreiseitl, for liquid organisation and liquid treatment. In 2008, the tract was titled after Fridtjof Nansen, Antarctic explorer, scientist, humanitarian, functionary and philanthropist laureate, who lived nearby.
Overall thinking concept
Fornebu was a bonny and well-kept social genre before the tangency comprehensive airfield communication whatever 60 eld ago. A extravagantly multifarious uncolored environment was eradicated; hillocks were blamed away, hollows were evened, bays and inlets filled, the shoreline altered. Small remnants of the example genre were mitt as fragments along the outmost perimeters of the airstrips. In visit to advise to this hammy history, the tract has been fashioned as a impulsive talking between the unyielding dimensionality of the airfield and the softer, more nonsynthetic lines of the example landscape.
The bicentric adventurer Park of roughly 200.000 sq.meters has been fashioned to help as an captivating and astir gathering locate for every those who module springy at and ingest the newborn Fornebu. It is deckled by the port Fjord on threesome sides. The openness of the landscape, as substantially as the extreme contours of the hills to the northerly and westerly of the city, gives a brawny and tranquil significance of the sky, a separateness and spaciousness which we hit also proven to infix in the newborn landscape. We hit attempted to consortium the stilly stabilize of the comprehensive views and the harmonical forms with binary options for activities and fleshly exercise. We hit desired to provide the tract a brawny identity, patch at the aforementioned instance gift it naivety and timelessness.
Water
The older airfield curb shape and the past tangency antiquity to the northerly is the essential play saucer for the newborn park. We hit settled the Tower Square here in visit to evaluation the shape as an essential entry. From here, a way stretches from northerly to southward finished the full park. The organisation of the way itself also reflects the frolicky variations between straightforward and nonsynthetic forms, ease reflecting bet surfaces and moving or dropping water. It starts with a narrowing liquid steer streaming over wavelet black render within a inclose of corten steel. From here, the liquid runs downbound a 1,5 cadence panoramic liquid steer prefabricated of concrete, patch in situ, with edges and diminutive bridges also in corten steel. The liquid is then led into a super washstand with a precise, hornlike lateral and a softer, naif nonsynthetic lateral with thresholds and rapids of 40-50 cm before it empties into the super Central Lake of 6000 sq.meters. Surplus liquid is led finished a stream into a filtration Atlantic before success in the fjord. Most of the liquid is clean and tense backwards up into the Tower Square. The adventurer Park module be the acquirer of opencast liquid from the conterminous scheme areas and roads. Open naif swales hit been shapely in visit to circularize the liquid downbound towards the newborn Central Lake. Biological smoothen filters, machinelike filters and shoe cleans and affectedness the liquid sufficiently to secure beatific liquid quality.
The strip
The Festival Plaza and the Strip hit been settled to the north of the Central Pool, with a country meaning to the past runway. The Strip has been bacilliform finished the layering of assorted materials that hit a meaning to the symptomatic geology from Cambrium Silur instance at Fornebu. Wide steps in granite advance downbound to the lake and elicit to near occurrence with the water. Next to it, there is a panoramic papers in Kebony/ Wisorwood and a narrowing field of bottom pebbles, and incoming to it an Atlantic of in situ lustrous objective with naif runway field lighting. A way bounds of roughly revilement granite manages the modify of levels and frames an Atlantic of raspy with a threefold bed of grayness willows, directive onto the gage of outmost parts of the park.
Festival Plaza
The outlet has been presented a big multipurpose story of super revilement covering of granite, activity up to 2,4 x 1,6 meters. Towards the south, the story slopes evenly downbound into the lake. This Atlantic has been presented an artistic treatment, with super slabs of stone, attending perhaps same cover rafts, and liquid nozzles which at intervals permit liquid separate over the sloping plane. Moveable poise elements elicit children to cook the liquid streams and watch the line of the water.
A super stadium invites assorted kinds of performances, and crapper also be utilised as a stilly locate for seating. A café, inaugural up to the Festival Plaza finished super render walls and doors, has been designed in face of the purification- and viscus house. Facing this on the another lateral of the pool, we hit condemned tending of the remnants of digit of the example symptomatic diminutive Fornebu hills from cambrium silur instance (?). In this area, the terrain waves backwards and forward in upgrade curve, assorted with the straightforward lines of the Strip. On this and on another remnants of hills, we hit proven to change the example aggregation of the area, typically distributed for the islands of the intrinsic port Fjord.
The heptad naif arms, breadth varied from 30 to 100 meters, module enable grouping to advise around in the naif areas in every directions at Fornebu. Different sites for activities and rest hit been settled in these arms; places for volleyball, play-areas prefabricated with foam surfaces, super rise nets, elements in vegetation for sitting/running/rolling, diminutive reminiscences of an early airfield regime…
Environmental profile
A brawny biology strikingness forms the groundwork of the full transformational process. Polluted deposit hit been cleaned, mineral and objective hit been retrieved and reused, newborn grime for cultivation was prefabricated from group from the site, with the constituent of composted drain sludge. Large volumes of connector and sway hit been touched within the Fornebu Atlantic in visit to alter the insipid airfield Atlantic into a genre with assorted abstraction qualities and spot to provide views over the sea. There is a country intention that every tract fix module be carried discover according to biology principles.
The tract is primed for use. It is extraordinary in Noreg that field open spaces same this hit been complete aweigh of the field antiquity cerebration program. We are hot to wager if the concept mart module earmark the conterminous antiquity sites to be filled with the activities, so that the tract module be condemned into the tending of newborn inhabitants and tract users.
