Mosling lived in several places, including Trondheim (1865-1873), Steinkjer (1874-1894), and Oslo (1894-1914). As part of his architectural practice, he also operated as a builder and for a period he also had a carpentry workshop in Steinkjer. For the last 20 years of his professional life, he was employed as a draftsman for the military at Akershus Fortress in Oslo.[2]
Mosling designed a number of churches in Norway, but due to his limited schooling, several of the drawings underwent extensive proofreading and adjustments by the architect Jacob Wilhelm Nordan who was the architect employed by the Ministry of Church Affairs.[2]
