Munch Areaes an urban project that occupies the peninsula flanked by the river Bjorvika Akerselva, one of the seven commons paving the Harbour Promenade ambitious program to open the Oslo fjord once released its coastal blockade which for centuries was the port and shipyards.

Munch Museum The future is the protagonist of the set but we should not forget that we are operating with a full piece of city, housing, offices, services, business and, above all, a remarkable amount of public space given to citizens.
We like to describe it as an intervention context uncompromisingly: oriented differently to the four cardinal points north to the city, the fjord south, east to the Ekeberg hill and Bispekaia neighborhood, and west to the Opera and historical center is described as a succession of places that offer different personalities, different programs, different trees, different environments, to which we have named intentionally: Library Square, bustling urban-Bispekaia Plaza-with-neighborhood market, Canal Walk, with its restaurants and riverside platforms, "Munch Plaza-anteroom of the hall, Museum Island, with its artistic intervention program," Beach Area "which continues the covers of opera in an artificial beach, and Leisure Island -for silence and contemplation.

This intentional and volume of the Museum and other buildings, this small district negotiates the different scales of important parts urban disconnected today, the river, the hill, the Bar Code of MVRDV project, opera Snohetta, the future library Daichman, new neighborhoods under construction, the fjord, etc .- permeability looking east-west and offers a diverse collection of hybrid types and programs that cover the entire spectrum of ages that focuses on a contemporary city, productive, living and visiting equal parts.

The urban program is distributed in blocks along the coast of hybrid program rising in height as they move away from her and slide over each other to seek the views and sun. Podiums are based on reproducing the original apple acquired at the level of the street a very urban setting in contrast to air permeability and character of the upper floors.
The Museum is located outside the area of influence of opera and there choose a vertical format to complete by contrast, the silhouette of public space have become their covers establishing an open and visible to the geography of the city and its topographical events and to create unlandmark be alongside opera identifying the city in the future.

The vertical Munch is also the idea of making the visit to the museum is both a dialogue with the city, a process of discovery, tuning and learning of history (past, present and future) from Oslo by dynamic exercise perception that is raising the horizon as you climb.
Memory research:
Develop a job as the Master Plan for Oslo Bjorvika in turn requires the conviction that any proposed architecture and urban design is in itself a research exercise. In fact, a significant part of our work was to make inroads into the world of applied knowledge and typological inventions to provide testable proposals not only from the point of view of architectural quality but also from the context variables objectively Nordic seen as a priority. This includes all standard quality of urban life, from sunlight to sustainability through accessibility to public transport and the equipment or the use of materials with recognizable virtues not to mention the claim of a diverse housing supply that affects housing but also the type of office and retail. All are elements of a conversation that develops multiple bands simultaneously with and in which the obligation to behave as an expert requires a studio responsible for each parameter.
Such a script can only be addressed from the design of protocols for design as an inherent part of the project. In our case, we have tried to enable a holistic view of the structural, urban facilities, environmental criteria and the actual construction of the development.









The intention is that all chapters operate collaboratively to search for an event responsible and intentionally made progress on certain concerns such as simplicity, sustainability, recyclability and maintenance. The consequence of these works are diverse: for example we can speak of energy self-sufficiency this piece of city powered by geothermal energy from the fjord and the implementation for the entire building of urban supply of cold water in summer and warm in winter as TABS principles (Thermal Active Building System), or refer to the networks of pneumatic waste collection, research on the use of recycled materials in the urbanization of the area and so on.
Therefore, speak of research is invoked for this work containing "scientific" while "useful to others." And is that research does not limit its application enabled this project but may well involve other recyclable material and that not only relates to technical or typological but to own working methods and the establishment of testing protocols , interpretation, redescription and communication of ideas. It is in this area where we consider that our work in Oslo can be useful for the community of architects, scientists who seek similar paths in the international context.

MVRDV win competition for China Comic and Animation Museum, Hangzhou
Hangzhou urban planning bureau has announced MVRDV winner of the international design competition for the China Comic and Animation Museum (CCAM) in Hangzhou, China. MVRDV won with a design referring to the speech balloon: a series of eight balloon shaped volumes create an internally complex museum experience of in total 30.000m2.
Part of the project is also a series of parks on islands, a public plaza and a 13.000m2 expo centre. Construction start is envisioned for 2012, the total budget is 92 million Euro.
Dutch studio MVRDV have won a design competition to build a Comic and Animation Museum in Hangzhou, China, formed of eight giant balloon-shaped forms.
Each balloon will contain a different function within the museum, including two exhibition spaces that will display cartoons, comics and animations.
The permanent exhibition space will spiral out of its chamber and on through the building to connect with three auditoriums and a comic book library.
Where balloons touch an opening is created internally, allowing views between spaces.
Comics and animations have long been considered a form of entertainment for the younger generations but develop more and more into a sophisticated art form. The initiative for a museum especially for this relatively recent art form creates a platform which will unite the worlds of art and entertainment. By using one of the cartoon’s prime characteristics – the speech balloon – the building will instantly be recognised as place for cartoons, comics and animations. The neutral speech balloon becomes 3d.
The 30.000m2 are distributed over eight volumes which are interconnected allowing for a circular tour of the entire program. Services such as the lobby, education, three theatres/cinemas with in total 1111 seats and a comic book library occupy each their own balloon. If two balloons touch in the interior a large opening allows access and views in-between the volumes. The balloon shape allows for versatile exhibitions, the permanent collection is presented in a chronological spiral whereas the temporary exhibition hall offers total flexibility. Amsterdam based exhibition architects Kossman deJong tested the spaces and designed exhibition configurations which appeal to different age groups and allow large crowds to visit the exhibition.
One of the balloons is devoted to interactive experience in which visitors can actively experiment with all sorts of animation techniques like blue screen, stop motion, drawing, creating emotions etc. The core attraction of this space is a gigantic 3D zoetrope. The routing of the museum permits short or long visits, visits to the cinema, the temporary exhibition or the roof terrace restaurant. The façade of the museum is covered in a cartoon relief referring to a Chinese vase. The monochrome white concrete façade allows the speech balloons to function: texts can be projected onto the façade. The relief was designed in collaboration with Amsterdam based graphic designers JongeMeesters.
Most of the 13.7 ha site is occupied by a new park on a series of islands in White Horse Lake. Reed beds are used to improve the water quality. Boat rides offer an added attraction. A separate expo building of 25.000m2 will house large fairs and the annual China International Comic and Animation Festival (CICAF). In-between expo and CCAM a public plaza will be the centre of this festival which is the county’s largest cartoon and animation event and has been held annually in Hangzhou since 2005.
Hangzhou is a metropolis with 6.4 million inhabitants 180 km southwest of Shanghai. The Museum will become a new focal point on the less populated southern side of Qiantang river. The CCAM will consolidate the city’s leading position as China’s capital of the animation industry. The new Museum will be the icon of a larger development, the Comic and Animation Centre. It comprises a series of hill-shaped buildings containing offices, a hotel and a conference centre of which the first phase is close to completion.

representing approximately 6,000 m². the building also includes an auditorium for 350 people,
library, offices, a restaurant, a gift shop and a multi-purpose gathering lounge.
