We were announced official runner-up in the competition to design a new urban area in the centre of Raufoss, Norway, creating better connections between the city and its large industrial park. We will meet with the local municipalities again in the coming year. The jury wrote: «The proposal This Must Be the Place celebrates a modernist past of rationality and scale that connects well to the industrial heritage of the place. The aesthetics of the built elements seduces with clever and modest architecture (...). The phasing of the proposal is uncomplicated and provides a reasonable strategy for the municipality.» The project was done with colleague at AHO, Andreas Kalstveit, and with help from Louis Gervais.

My article on the prevailing influence of architectural rationalism as a style has been published in the magazine Mur+Betong no.2 - 2019.

The article is the first in a series - I will be contributing two articles a year to the magazine, in the regular column "Byggekunst". The next article will be out by the end of 2019.

I gave a lecture about recent work in the Ideal Type lecture series at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design. The series also included lectures by Lie Øyen, Atelier Oslo, Sanden Hodnekvam.

The exhibition 55 Houses of Faith opened at the gallery of Oslo School of Architecture and Design. It displays the result of a short course looking at historical references, taught together with Lina Broström.
