Underpass tunnel1/25/2024 Also, the project won The Social Innovation Award sponsored by Norwegian Form, and attended PechaKucha at DogA (The Norwegian Centre for Design and Architecture). In the end, “Tunnelen” got sponsored by 1.8 million NOK in support by the Oslo Municipality. The municipality had a budget of 500 000 NOK, with the possibility of extension by a strong design delivery. Roots to the local community is expressed throughout the illuminating line that winds the history of Ammerud through the climbing wall. “Tunnelen” is a social meeting point with a climbing wall, fitness area, Norway's longest monkey bar, a large blackboard for creative expression and mirror wall for dance and other activities. Research led us to the biggest and scariest tunnel, changing it from being a place people avoid to being a place people want to spend time. Oslo Municipality wanted the residents to use the pathway system more and our project should focus on: activity, confidence and pride. Project TeamĪt Ammerud, a suburb area of Oslo, there are several dark pathways and underpasses people avoid because they are too creepy. Among the features you will find a climbing wall, Norway’s longest monkey bar and a creative exercise area. The solution is “Tunnelen” (“The tunnel”), an underpass of activities, which also function as a social meeting point. Paying attention to the wishes and opinions of the inhabitants the design is locally rooted in the area and people itself. The size of the underpass makes the potential of it so much greater than to just leave it as an underpass. One of the worst spots is a 30 meters long underpass - completely dark and used as a shelter for murky trading. The area has several dark pathways and underpasses people avoid due to their creepy reputation. The Municipality of Oslo wanted to increase the use of the pathway system, focusing on activity, safety and pride. Industrial design students got the opportunity to change the life of inhabitants at Ammerud (a suburb of Oslo) by completely transforming a place people avoid to a place people love spending time.
