In 1999, Bolle Tham and Martin Videgard Hansson founded their architectural practice - Tham & Videgard Arkitekter - with the aim of offering a progressive and contemporary vision that was neither stuck in the functionalist past nor preoccupied with the conceptual image. By approaching each new project in their own direct and uncomplicated way, they have created boundless opportunities for architectural exploration and creativity. For ten years, during which time the firm has won numerous accolades and awards, they have produced singular and lucid architecture that uniquely combines elements of traditional Nordic design with an international and contemporary vision.
