REINTERPRETING OUR CULTURAL IDENTITY

CORNELIUS VÖGE – Atelier for Architecture was established in 2006 by Danish architects Nanna Vöge and Dan Cornelius. The studio now has 15-20 employees and has won several international and national competitions.

The studio is recognised for its narrative Nordic architecture and modern interpretations of the Danish-Nordic architectural tradition. It has built a number of award-winning buildings  and received several awards for its practice. The studio was the first to be honored with the Halldor Gunnløgssons Fonds Hæderslegat in architecture:

 

”Through their persistent development of a clear set of values
and an undisputed decency in building designs
they have accomplished to sharpen their artistic contribution so well
that the studio today appears as
one of our best interpreters of the Danish-Nordic architectural heritage.”

 

REUSE, TRANSFORMATION AND LONG-LASTING QUALITY  

The studio offers strategic client consultancy and long-lasting architectural solutions to public and private clients.

Within planning, preservation and development of cultural heritage, transformation of existing buildings, reconstruction and new building, we advise and provide solutions for our clients from early-stage analyses, stakeholder and user involvement, ideation and sketching to completed project.

 

A RESILIENT APPROACH

To us, architecture is a communicative form of art. Buildings have stories they want to tell and context is key to the narrative of all landscapes and buildings we develop, design, transform and build. From early ideation and sketching to finished buildings; the local, physical, historical, social-cultural and organisational contexts are thoroughly analysed and carefully considered in all parts of our process.

The use of existing ressources and reuse of materials is not at style of architecture to us. It is integrated  in our proces of creating architecure that can stand the passing of time and being used by generations to come. We consider architecture as the added value to all kinds of building, urban and landscape planning. Architecture increases the keeping quality and total value of all projects and with focus on quality and lasting solutions with low carbon impact, sustainability is a natural and integrated part of the way we work.

 

CREATING THIRD PLACES 

The studio has expertise in planning and building  recreational, cultural and educational use, social and health care purpose and creating third places within building typologies and urban developments. We have a special expertise in creating shared spaces functioning as meeting places and streghtening diversity, local and social structures. Current the office is hosting an PHD related to planning of third places with analysis of what is working and how we develop and implement methods for creating valuable meeting places in our buildings and communities.

 

INTEGRATED USE OF LCA/LCC/CIRCULARITY

The studio offers strategic client consultancy and high quality sustainable architectural solutions to public and private clients. DGNB counseling, LCA/LCC analysis, integration of circular solutions and use of low-impact mono materials are among the technical sustainability tools we use. Each building being considered for long lasting use and second life flexibility for disassembly and reuse.
