Restoration - a VBKU project in Oslo
Restoration

Preserve the soul,
renew the life

We give older buildings a new life - with deep respect for their original character.

Historic details are preserved. Modern comfort is added. The soul stays intact.

Approach

Respect for
history

Every building has a story. We map the original materials, techniques and architectural details before we begin - so the restoration builds on the building's identity rather than replacing it.

The process

From condition report
to finished result

01

Site visit

We carry out a site visit where we map the technical starting point and discuss your wishes and dreams. Having some material on the floor plans is important here. This gives us a solid basis for a quote.

02

Planning

We plan closely together with the client. As well as drawing up floor plans and selecting surface materials, we work in parallel on structural calculations and other technical engineering where needed. If a building application is required, we assist with that work - whether it is a straightforward case or a dispensation.

03

Demolition & clearing

Everything old is removed, and the waste is sorted in line with the authorities' requirements.

04

Construction

Structure and technical systems are built according to the engineered solutions.

05

Handover

Completion, with all documentation handed over in the property file.

Typical measures

What we do in a restoration
