The Deepest Dive

In a Norwegian fjord ten Americans are doing what no one has ever done before. They dive and work at a depth of 320 meters (1065 feet). The divers have to succeed to secure the future of an oil-nation. But something goes terribly wrong. https://tv.nrk.no/program/MDDP11005115/the-deepest-dive     DRH Design http://www.drhdesign.com

The Deepest Dive - Summary

Image
It was called the inverted moon landing. The deepest work dives ever. It was the dive that would make Norway unimaginably rich. In retrospect, it was called a success. How was it possible when one died, one was injured and a third party as far as my life is preserved? http://www.nrk.no/dokumentar/xl/det-dypeste-dykket-1.12601303

Driven to distraction: the Norway road trip where cool design meets dramatic scenery

Vertigo-inducing viewing platforms, island-hopping bridges, and some of the funkiest toilet facilities in the northern hemisphere: these are just a sample of the design flourishes that Norway’s National Tourist Routes program (NTR) has introduced across the country over the past 15 years. Add to this the fact that the roads program has been a great incubator for Norway’s young, vibrant architectural scene – which is respected for its daring and imagination across Europe – and for anyone heading north this summer, with design leanings or simply curious, a road trip beckons. https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2016/jul/20/architecture-norway-road-trip-national-tourist-routes
