Case Study: Hedmark Museum
The Hedmark Museum is a study of dichotomies: the new and the old, permanence and impermanence, light and shadow. It explores the convergence of past, present, and future within a single building. The study focuses is on the southern portion, which houses the medieval ruins, also known as the Bishop’s Palace. Much of the original elements are preserved and the interventions to the site are minimal. The heart of the Bishop’s Palace is the elevated bridge that is not only functional in directing the spatial narrative of the site whilst preserving the site below but also symbolic in bridging different dichotomies.
