PARADIGME

PARADIGME is a new Scandinavian anthology (book) launching at the Oslo Architecture Triennale 2026 (opening September 17). The project brings together young voices in architecture and related fields to rethink nature’s role in contemporary architecture, using the planet’s ecological limits as a starting point to challenge industry hierarchies.

Anchored in the Triennale’s 2026 theme, “What if Nature Comes First?”, the anthology invites critical, constructive, and cross-disciplinary reflections on the relationship between nature, architecture, and society — expressed through projects, text, images, art and more.

We invite Scandinavian students, recent graduates and young professionals to challenge today’s building practices, and contribute to new ways of shaping our environments.
