oslo - the new opera house - part III


as you venture inside you find that there is (somewhat surprising after all the cold whiteness) colour and texture to be found at the opera house. the colour is in the large, lovely and very lively wooden panel. the texture is in the sheep skins covering the small sofas and the origami-like texture of some of the walls.






















i found that every little detail fitted perfectly in with the overriding aesthetics of the place - the coffee cup was very fancy & the coffee was divine.

this place reminded me of something. not the CERN lab, not Legoland, something out of the natural world...
the sharp yet sloping angles, the whiteness and the blue hues of ocean & sky...

The land of Gondor, perhaps?

Så flotte bilder du tar av Operaen:-)) Har ikke vært der sjøl, bare hørt av min mann og andre at det er litt ymse. Du har og den evnen til å se detaljer og temaer der andre bare ser overflaten. Flotte bilder du tar!!

;-)))
