The project
| | COIL has supplied the cladding materials for The Twist that bridges the Randselva river dividing the Kistefos sculpture park in Norway. The bridge also houses a museum.
The Twist, opens as an inhabitable bridge torqued at its center, forming a new journey and art piece within the Kistefos Sculpture Park in Jevnaker, Norway. |

The design is from the hand of BIG, Bjarke Ingels Group who first revealed the design for The Twist in 2015 after winning a competition held by Sveaas, which invited designs for a new museum for contemporary art that would transform the site into a "must-see cultural destination".
The Twist was chosen for its ambition to reconfigure the site and provide new and unattainable vistas of the river and old paper mill.
This project now has been awarded with the Building Awards 2020 : International Project Of The Year.
We are proud our materials have been used on this nice reference. |
