Nationaltheatret, Oslo

The Nationaltheatret is a listed building dating from 1899. The initial renovation project included an upgrade of the technical and theatrical installations, and an improvement to the acoustic quality of the main hall. Due to the identified constraints, constructing a new building on a new site is now considered the most suitable solution.
