History and profile

Byggekunst was launched in 1919 as a successor of Teknisk Ukeblad. Arkitektur og Dekorativ Kunst.[1][2][3] The subtitle of the magazine was Norske arkitekters tidsskrift for arkitektur og anvendt kunst.[4] The founder and publisher of the magazine was the National Association of Norwegian Architects (Norske Arkitekters Landsforbund).[5][6] The association was consisted of young art historians.[5] The magazine became the official media outlet of the association and was based in Oslo.[4][7]

In the early years Byggekunst included reports on international exhibitions.[1] The contributors of the magazine criticised the absence of contemporary Norwegian architecture at that time in their articles.[1] One of the significant contributors was Ole Landmark, a Norwegian architect.[2]

One of the editors was Christian Norberg-Schulz who held the post between 1963 and 1978.[8] The magazine ceased publication in 2007 and was succeeded by another magazine, Arkitektur N.[6][9]
