Nobel Peace Centre
The Nobel Peace Center succeeds in uniting an existing building with new structures and enabling the investigation and integration of new technologies and interactivity to enhance the visitor experience. The Center opened in June 2005 with special guests Nelson Mandela and the 2005 prize winner Wangari Maathai. The Centre is located in the old Vestbanen station where a strong external form encloses a number of highly differentiated spaces within a masonry structure. Where the original spaces are visible, they have been transformed by radical decoration. Elsewhere, the interiors have been reoccupied by a series of installations whose materiality and orientation contrast with the surrounding fabric. Whichever approach has been used; the overall intention remains the same; to create a powerful sequence of experiences that illustrate the work of the Peace Prize programme.
