Sofia Fors (b. 1987, Sweden) founded the Copenhagen-based architecture practise Fors Arkitekter in 2020. The practice works with architecture as a spatial and perceptual discipline. It explores how space, material and movement shape human experience, and how architecture can frame new relationships between people and their surroundings. Working across scales - from small experimental interventions to complex public buildings - the projects are driven by a clear conceptual approach and a strong sensitivity to context. Architecture and landscape are developed as interconnected systems, where spatial sequences, material presence and transitions define both use and atmosphere.
