AKT II

AKT II is a design-led structural engineering consultancy, founded in 1996, with an office in Copenhagen as well as bases in the UK and Toronto, collaborating with architects and developers on demanding building structures.

A good commission starts with a site visit and a conversation about everyday use; from there, design should balance aesthetics, durability and maintenance.

Finally, plan for the life of the space after handover: cleaning, replacement parts and possible extensions, rather than thinking only about the initial delivery.
