New identity for Oslo Kommune, by Creuna AS

In this week…

The biggest debate this week must go to the city emblem debacle. Oslo Kommune has spent nearly 5 million kroner to get a unified and modern visual identity for all the departments under Oslo Kommune. The new identity created by the agency Creuna was revealed earlier this week and immediately met with widespread criticism. The major problem lies on the concern that if the city emblem will be completely replaced by the new oversimplified logo or not.

A “modern, simplistic, clean” redesign goes completely wrong, well, it reminds us of this joke about the Starbucks logo.
Bruker nesten 5 mill. på ny Oslo-design: – Har kommet litt feil ut

The slow TV series Minutt for Minute has become a Summer tradition here in Norway, and this year we are going to follow the “Norwegian Bear Grylls” Lars Monsen exploring nature across the country. Monsen minutt for minutt will be on telly on 12 July.

Radisson Blu Plaza Hotell, or locally known as Oslo Plaza, will gain three additional floors on the existing building, reclaiming the status of the tallest building in Oslo. It will also get a new 17-storey extension next to the original building.
Oslo får nytt mini-Plaza

The new trams in Oslo are going to be Spanish. The model of the new tram is Urbos 100, now known as SL18. You can see them test-running in 2020, and in 2024 all the 72 old trams will be replaced by these new ones.

The salary for a Member of Parliament(Stortingsrepresentant) has been increased this year by 26.000kr, meaning that their new yearly salary becomes 954 000 kroner, soon reaching 1 million kroner mark. Audun Lysbakken, the leader of SV, said that it’s time for the parliament to take a political debate about the MPs’ salary level, and we can’t agree more.
Stortinget bevilger seg selv 26.000 kroner i lønnsøkning

A new 26-episode animated series about three vikings has been commissioned by Disney, and most important of all, it’s Disney’s first Norwegian animation production. It took the production company Storm Films ten years to finish the development of this new series Viking Skool.

NRK has made a lot of effort on raising the awareness of the tremendous pressure guys are under to achieve an ideal body image. Mathias Vestergaard, one of the informants, used to get bullied for his chest and he had to use a belt to bind his chest at school. In the end he went through a surgery. A saddening but alarming story. Highly recommended.

Newbees in Oslo…

Bar Albatross Oslo, logo designed by Morten Engebretsen

BAR // Bar Albatross: Torshov used to be the peaceful, quiet neighbourhood for wealthy young parents and grownups. But well, things are starting to change because it has got itself another new hip, designy and hipster neighbourhood bar Albatross. It has the classic hipster decor that is done by Morten Engebretsen. Having just opened its doors last week, it has already stolen singer-songwriter Marte Wulff’s heart. “It just opened and I already feel like it has always been there. Good music, good people, and good anything you like to drink,” said Marte in the interview we did with her new band VIGGO. Torshovgata 5 – Torshov

BAR // Pedro’s: In addition to the staple Portuguese fixtures Pastel de Nata and Andorinha, we now have got one more tasteful addition — Pedro’s.

In this week…

Wednesday’s high of 32C was recorded in some parts of Oslo, making it the hottest day in May on record. The previous highest recorded temperature for May was 29.8C.

On Wednesday thousands of litres of oil was leaked into the sea through river Alnaelva by a company in Ryen. Sørenga and two other swimming spots were thus closed by the police until the spillage is handled.

Paul Mccarthy’s sculpture Santa Claus is the latest addition to the star-studded art collection of Ekebergparken. Owned by the Norwegian tycoon Christian Ringnes, Ekebergparken has been in a mission to collect international art heavyweights since its opening in 2013. Santa Claus, or casually known as “Butt Plug Gnome”, has been reproduced in different sizes and materials since it was first displayed in Rotterdam in 2001. Ekebergparken is receiving a 6-meter tall red version.

Pew Research Centre published a new survey regarding nationalism and religions in Western European countries. Responding to this statement “Our people are not perfect, but our culture is superior to others.”, 58% of the Norwegian respondents expressed “completely agree” or “mostly agree”, making Norway the most “nationalistic” Western European country in this survey.
Western Europeans divided over whether their culture is superior to others

In average the Norwegians take 14.8 days’ sick leave in a year while the Swedes take 11.9 days and the Danes takes 8.5 sick days in average in a year. This boils down to the relaxed attitudes towards and the generous rules and regulations of sick leave and pay in Norway; employees would in general get fully paid when taking sick leave.

Bruket in Oslo

PLACE // Vega Scene: Vega Scene, a new cinema, theatre and culture place on Hausmania, will not open until November, but they have just launched a crowdfunding project to raise more money for their opening.

BAR // Bruket: Schweigaards gate, which used to be a rather barren and industrial street, is getting a new green life thanks to the landbrukskvartalet on Schweigaards gate 34C. Landbrukskvartalet (The Agriculture Quarter) is now home to various green organisations, including Nabolagshager, Greenhouse and a new bar/eatery/cultural venue Bruket, which just opened in April.

“Cash is king” is such a dated expression. We Osloers hardly use cash these days. But if you still have some old 100NOK and 200NOK banknotes, use them asap as they are expiring by the end of this month. Save yourself the hassle of going to the bank later!

Norwegian Wood, one of the longest-running rock music festivals in Oslo, is cancelled this year because of poor ticket sales. The festival says: “It is necessary to cancel this year’s festival and we’d rather focus on making the world’s best music festival next year.”

The Norwegian newspaper Dagens Næringsliv has accused Jay-Z’s music streaming company TIDAL of fabricating streaming numbers for Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo and Beyoncé’s Lemonade. TIDAL is an Oslo-based Norwegian streaming service, which was bought by Jay-Z’s Project Panther Bidco Ltd in 2015. This news story is already two weeks old but we reckon everyone should know about it because of its severity and implication. What do all these online streaming figures mean when they can be pumped up easily by bots and all sorts of manipulation?

Teaming up with the owners of Kulturhuset, the people behind Nord & Natt are turning their establishment on Tøyentorg into a full-blown cultural cafe/bar (kulturhuset/kulturaktivitetshus), which will be similar to the concept of Kulturhuset on Youngstorget. It’s expected to open in August. In case you don’t know, Tøyen is also going to have two more “cultural places” — Factory Tøyen and Kulturstedet.

After the reports of shootings on the streets of Vestli on last Saturday, the district Groruddalen, which is on the east side of Oslo, has been under the spotlight in the media. Extra police forces have been arranged to go on patrol during the night in the area, which has a high concentration of immigrants from the less wealthy parts of the world.

The journalists from NRK are somehow thrilled to see Oslo being destroyed for the first time on the big screen, boasting about the achievements of the upcoming Norwegian big-budget film The Quake (Skjelvet); it’s the first Norwegian film to use the visual effects and scenography that is more or less only used in the USA.
