Design and Innovation in Architecture

Innovation must ensure that architecture is constantly evolving – functionally and aesthetically.

Most people spend 80-90 per cent of their time indoors, and when function and design complement one another, it can make a big difference to people’s daily lives and well-being.

For this very reason, aesthetics and design are weighted in several of the leading building certification schemes. You can read more about this on this theme page, where architects talk about their innovative approach to design.

Innovation is also a fundamental value at Troldtekt. On this page, you can see examples of Troldtekt design solutions that bring together acoustics, indoor climate and characterful design. And you can visit a number of buildings where the solutions have been installed.
