There’s a building in the University Botanical Garden in Oslo, Norway with a lot of history. That refers to the structure itself, which just celebrated its 100-year anniversary, and to what’s on display inside, which spans the entire 4.5 billion years since the creation of the universe. It’s the Natural History Museum, which recently re-opened after a several year-long renovation by Atelier Brückner
like its high windows that connect the interior to the outdoors and allow natural light to flood through the interior
So too do its original Douglas fir cabinetry and paneling
Atelier Brückner worked closely with the museum’s scientists to rejuvenate the exhibition spaces
adding modern light and media technologies and a new program to guide visitors on a journey through Earth’s natural history
there are two: there’s the “Family Trail” or the “Expert Trail,” each of which will cover a total of 100 stations targeted at their specific audience
It starts on level one with “Evolution of Life,” from the dinosaurs (see the real Triceratops skull) through the rise of the mammals (like Ida
a fossilized primate that lived 47 million years ago)
The third is dedicated to our planet’s ever-changing geology
Finally guests can pay a visit to the sub-terranean Crystal Cave at the basement level
It’s a whirlwind tour of the natural world that’s sure to make anyone feel more connected with our planet.

BOWA MEDICAL construction team inside the new facility
A glass of German beer and a good old-fashioned Devon cream tea were the order of the day as a significant milestone was reached in the building of a company's new South Devon headquarters
BOWA MEDICAL UK
a medical technology manufacturer launched locally in 1978 and now part of the German-owned BOWA group
is constructing its new HQ in Kingskerswell
The company celebrated the topping out of the site with a German ‘Richtfest’ at Oak Tree Business Park
to join the Directors of the UK division for the occasion
The event brought together representatives from Teignbridge Council
including local councillor David Palethorpe
along with team members from construction partners Devon Contractors
Pinnacle Architectural Design & Project Management Ltd
BOWA MEDICAL UK became part of BOWA-electronic GmbH & Co
The celebration combined their German and Devonian heritage: attendees raised a glass of German beer
toasting to good fortune for the building and its future occupants
before enjoying a Devon cream tea under the rafters
addressed guests at the ceremony and said: "In German culture
this moment is often marked by gratitude to the team who brought the project to life – brick by brick and beam by beam
So let me take a moment to echo that sentiment and extend our deepest thanks to all the people who have made this vision a reality
This ceremony symbolises more than just reaching the highest point—it represents our shared commitment to quality
was pleased to mark this important moment and added: "Reaching this major milestone in the construction of BOWA MEDICAL UK is a fantastic achievement for everyone involved
The topping-out ceremony marks significant progress on a project that will provide a state-of-the-art facility for an industry-leading client
and the client team for their collaboration and commitment
We look forward to delivering the final stages of the build and seeing this fantastic facility come to life.”
The new Kingskerswell facility will significantly enhance BOWA MEDICAL UK’s capacity to meet growing demand for its products
including the world’s first torsional ultrasonic scalpel – LOTUS
It will also create room for future expansion
which is expected to generate new employment opportunities in the local area
BOWA MEDICAL recently welcomed 21 South Devon College construction students to their new site
the tour included a walkthrough of the site and a detailed explanation of the planning and building process
this visit was their first opportunity to see an active construction site
offering them a fresh perspective on the construction industry
it’s important for us to give back to the community
This visit was a great opportunity to inspire students and provide them with a hands-on experience at our new site
We’ve had great success in hiring engineering apprentices through South Devon College
so we’re pleased to support the next generation of students who are developing their skills in construction.”
added: "It’s vital to support and inspire the next generation of construction professionals
We are passionate about creating opportunities for students to experience real-world projects and gain valuable insights into the industry
and initiatives like this allow us to share our progress and demonstrate the positive impact our projects can have on the community.”
led the group of students and said: "It’s been a really good insight into how real sites work for the learners… signing in the staffroom offices and having a tour around the building just to understand and so they can get used to [it]
This has been a really good insight and hopefully they learn quite a bit from it.”
