What is Tjuvholmen in 3D?

Tjuvholmen in 3D is an approximate 3D model of the Tjuvholmen district in Oslo. It was made with AI by Vidar Vestnes. The model is simplified. It gives an impression of the district, its buildings and surroundings, but it is not an exact copy.

The model works in your browser, on phones and on computers, and is available in six languages. There is nothing to install.

Tjuvholmen is open to everyone. The streets, quays, bathing spots and sculpture park are free to visit.

  • See the district by day, in the evening and at night, with lights in the windows.
  • Click a building to see the year it was built, the architect and the developer.
  • Search for an address, and share the view with a link.
  • Look out for the details: the sculptures, the sea bath, the Oslo Tree and the people in the model.

About the project

Tjuvholmen in 3D is an AI project by Vidar Vestnes, made together with Claude from Anthropic. The outlines and heights of the buildings are based on map data from OpenStreetMap and Kartverket (the Norwegian Mapping Authority). Façades, planting and details are simplified or drawn by judgement, and the facts come from public sources.
