KAARE KLINT

"The legacy of Kaare Klint has particularly affected our practice. Both his approach and way of teaching, but also that generation's notion of architecture as something that transcends all scales - something that builds on the existing world. This is also a sustainable way of working with architecture."

MATHIAS MENTZE & ALEXANDER V. OTTENSTEIN

The multidisciplinary architectural practice, founded by Mentze Ottenstein, Mathias Mentze & Alexander Vedel Ottenstein, spans different scales of architecture. Their work counts everything from small objects to larger buildings, but always with a main focus on interior and exhibition design. With a background in architecture, Mentze and Ottenstein are especially inspired by Kaare Klint’s approach to teaching, where inspiration was sought in the past to create designs for the future. Inside their private home, located in the heart of Copenhagen, a curated combination of the past, present and future exposes their shared passion for art and design in all forms.
