TIME OUT NAMES THE TWIST ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS IN THE WORLD

The Twist, an art gallery that doubles as a pedestrian bridge in Norway’s Kistefos Sculpture Park, has been included in Time Out magazine’s global roundup of “the 24 most beautiful buildings in the world.” Completed in 2019, the building is defined by a 90-degree horizontal twist at its center, allowing it to shift between two distinct gallery spaces while navigating the sloping terrain. From one side, it reads as a straight, geometric volume; from the other, a dynamic, rotating form. Visitors enter from either riverbank, moving through a sequence of spaces that vary in light and scale, framing views of both the art inside and the surrounding landscape.
