ABOUT
Norell/Rodhe is an architecture studio founded by Daniel Norell and Einar Rodhe. The studio views architecture as a cultural practice, and each project seeks to unfold narratives and enter into conversations with the city and its inhabitants. Their work ranges from competition winning schemes for cultural buildings and landscapes, to interiors and installations. Completed projects include a conversion of an historical navy building for the Royal Institute of Art on the island of Skeppsholmen in Stockholm. The studio frequently participates in publications and exhibitions and their work has been included in group shows at Aedes Architecture Forum, ArkDes, Bildmuseet, the Bruges Triennial 2024, Färgfabriken, the 2019 Oslo Architecture Triennale, the 2018 and 2023 Venice Architecture Biennales, and at Yale University School of Architecture. Norell/Rodhe teaches, lectures and pursues research in Sweden as well as internationally.
