AMBITIONS
​Schjelderup Trondahl Architects is a small Norwegian practice. Our work spans art and design, residential homes, and large-scale urban development, alongside technological innovations. Social sustainability is a consistent focus, and our projects aim for a clear purpose that goes beyond mere functionality.
​​
— Attention to details —
​
At the heart of our work lies meticulous attention to detail, a deep appreciation for materials, and a commitment to crafting bespoke architectural solutions—whether responding to a desire for personalized design or addressing specific social purposes. We believe that each project deserves a "hands-on" approach, one that reflects the unique aspirations of our clients or societal needs while responding thoughtfully to its specific context and environment.
​​
— Shared visions and mutual interests —
​
Our projects and methods vary in scale and complexity. When we collaborate within our extensive network we can achieve unorthodox and unprecedented results together.
​
— Connecting the dots —
​
With a strong sense of social awareness, our approach to city and neighborhood development focuses on fostering social sustainability and addressing complex urban challenges. By cultivating a diverse array of specific techniques and drawing on our multidisciplinary network of collaborators, we develop strategies that are both innovative and inclusive. This method allows us to connect the many voices and initiatives in a community with decision-makers, funders, and implementers, ensuring that each project is not only impactful but also deeply rooted in its social and spatial context
