Arkitema

Arkitema is an architecture company who believes in sustainable development.

Buildings shape us, and we shape them. As we see it, buildings are much more than just machines to live in; they are living organisms which help to promote human activity.

Building Sustainable

Arkitema believes in sustainability. And not just as a slogan called forth by the media and circumstances. The people at Arkitema have worked with sustainability as a central dogma ever since the foundation of the practice back in 1969, and the company continues to develop and learn within this area. Today, Arkitema has no problem designing buildings that are both competitive AND sustainable – the company’s goal is for the two concepts to form a synthesis in the future, when sustainability will be an essential element in all architectural work. It’s called "Building Sustainable".

Building Customized

Arkitema believes that the best architecture is created by involving the architecture's users. Not by just asking them to passively contribute to a questionnaire survey, but by observing their behaviour and the needs they reveal in their daily routine – and then, via Arkitema aesthetic and anthropological processes, offering a solution which solves problems of which the users were barely aware. It’s called "Building Customized".

Building Smart

Arkitema believes in technological progress, and feels that the major paradigm shift which has been enabled by 3D project planning is comparable to the revolution brought about by the invention of spatial perspective in the 15th century. The company actively cultivates innovation as a key element in all the projects, and expects that technological progress in construction, together with globalisation, will create entirely new building types in the 21st century – building types that the company is looking forward to designing. It’s called "Building Smart".

With 220 employees, Arkitema is one of Denmark's largest architectural practices.
