Villa Stenersen

Villa Stenersen in Oslo was designed by architect Arne Korsmo for the financier, art collector and author Rolf Stenersen and his family in 1939. The house was intended to serve both as a residence and as a gallery for his large art collection, and is considered as one of the main works of architectu

re in the Norwegian functionalist style. It is also the only Norwegian member of Iconic Houses. It is currently undergoing restoration headed by Statsbygg, in collaboration with the National Gallery and the Stenersen family. The villa is operated by the National Gallery of Norway and is open to the public every Sunday during the summer.
