Oslo Opera House

Oslo Opera House Composition 1

Home of the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, the Norwegian architectural firm Snøhetta won the design competition to build a new opera house in the city. Completed in 2007, the Opera House won the World Architecture Festival in Barcelona in October 2008 award.


The building resembles a glacier flowing into the Oslofjord inlet. The white granite structure invites pedestrians to walk up and enjoy a panoramic view of Oslo from the roof. The strong lines and angular shape were an architectural photographer’s dream.

Cheers,

Although I initially captured this image in color, I knew it would end up in B&W.
