On the winding randselva River, the twist museum is designed as a livable bridge and a twist, and it is like a piece of art integrated into the whole kistefos sculpture park. As an infrastructure, the building connects the two sides of the forest and completes the cultural route through the largest sculpture park in northern Europe.
A simple twist in the volume of the building caused the bridge to rise from the lower forest bank in the south to the hillside area in the north. As a continuous path in the landscape, both sides of the building serve as the main entrance. From the south entrance, tourists cross a 16 meter high aluminum steel bridge to a two-story space, where they can clearly see the north end, which is also connected with a 9-meter-high pedestrian overpass. The museum's hyperbolic geometry consists of 40 cm wide straight aluminum plates, arranged like a pile of books, moving slightly in a fan like manner.
The white geometry extends on the water surface. It is thin and full of curve, with a sense of movement. This energy is also fully reflected in the interior, the walls become floors, and vice versa, coupled with a huge glass opening, you can see the spectacular scenery of Norway's green countryside. The interior decoration is made of white solid wood board. On the one hand, it refers to the external decorative strip, on the other hand, it implies the traditional architecture of Norway and the style of local rural houses and barns.
The twist museum was designed and built by big architects, and David Zahle, a partner, explained, "the structure of the building is extremely complex, but the results are simple and compelling. The museum is composed of a series of straight elements, which are built in an industrial way. It is not only an infrastructure, but also a building reflecting the natural environment. As you approach the twist, you begin to notice that the museum reflects the trees, hills and water below, and constantly flickers and changes its appearance in dialogue with nature. "
At the north end, a high glass curtain wall provides a panoramic view of the paper mill and the river, while bending upward to form a 25 cm wide skylight. Due to the curved form of glass doors and windows, the various sunlight entering the museum creates three unique galleries: a gallery with wide panoramic view and natural lighting on the north side; a tall and dark gallery with artificial lighting on the south side; in between, a sculpture space with twisted roof light. The ability to divide, divide or merge gallery spaces creates flexibility for kistefos's art planning. A glass staircase leads to the lower floor of the North River Bank of the museum, and the aluminum underside of the building becomes the ceiling of the basement and toilet. Another full width glass wall brings visitors closer to the river below, enhancing the overall immersion in the idyllic woodland on the outskirts of Oslo.
