Lars Johan Almgren completed his architectural degree at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 2013. After studying architectural interventions in sensitive historic sites in Rome, he went on to create award winning competition designs for Erik Giudice Architecture in Paris and Kjellander Sjöberg Architecture in Stockholm. In 2016 he joined Danish architecture studio Dorte Mandrup. With his abstract and artistic mindset, he plays a key role in the competition phase of a project – bringing form and concept to life. Lars has an unmistakable flair for aesthetics, experimental curiosity, and a deep contextual understanding, exemplified in a wide range of high-profile projects, spanning across scale and borders. Lars has poured his distinctive talent into the development of projects like The Whale, the Exile Museum in Berlin, and the conceptualization of the exhibition Conditions at the Architecture Biennale 2018.
