Hear the bells at Oslo's City Hall ring to the tune of David Bowie and Mötorhead songs. The clock tower standing on the grounds of Oslo’s City Hall (Rådhusplassen, in Norwegian) has played a musical interlude every hour for years. It’s a tradition.
However, the carillonists operating the bells, are far from bound by tradition when deciding what music to play.

The Barcode buildings consists of twelve narrow high-rise buildings of different heights and widths. The buildings are built with some space in between them, thus jointly resembling a barcode. The BARCODE concept is designed as a geometric system that stands out architecturally. Besides the overall shape, the buildings are very different. Each building has its own distinctive character, and enjoyable architectonic details and quirks make Barcode an architectural experience quite out of the ordinary.
