The former Embassy Chancery on Henrik Ibsens gate in downtown Oslo was designed by Finnish–American architect Eero Saarinen, who also designed the American Embassy in London and the Gateway Arch in Saint Louis, Missouri.
It was completed in 1959.
The base of the building forms a horizontal triangle.
Physical security measures, including a fence surrounding the chancery, were added after the September 11, 2001 attacks in the U.S.
As of June 2016, some of the windows had the colors corresponding to those of the Rainbow Flag to give recognition to Pride Month.
