Architecture & Landscape
Fors Arkitekter is a Copenhagen-based architecture studio founded by Sofia Fors. The studio is dedicated to designing spaces that foster togetherness, movement, and well-being. We believe architecture has the power to shape lives, strengthen communities, and create meaningful connections between people and their environment.
The studio has a user-centric approach, working with architecture and landscape in an integrated process to deliver engaging, site-specific solutions that enhance local communities and improve quality of life. With extensive experience, from concept to realization, we design inclusive and flexible outdoor and indoor spaces tailored to diverse activities and user needs. From public pavilions and urban spaces to school buildings, our projects prioritize inclusivity and community, ensuring that physical environments support both individual and collective needs.
Collaboration is at the heart of our work. We engage closely with users, municipalities, and a trusted network of specialists to innovate and ensure our designs reflect the unique needs of each project. Through collaborative workshops and dialogue, we challenge conventional norms to shape more inclusive and engaging spaces.
In all our projects, we are committed to strengthening communities, enhancing well-being, and creating innovative solutions that have a positive impact on both people and the environment—today and for future generations.
