Aarhus School of Architecture
Located at Godsbanen in the heart of Aarhus, New Aarch — Denmark’s first newly constructed school of architecture – stands as a visionary piece of architecture. Designed in collaboration with Arkitema Architects, ADEPT, and a team of experts, the building is characterised by its transparency, soaring ceilings, and a raw, workshop-inspired aesthetic. It reflects the creative spirit of architectural education and positions itself as an elite institution for architectural development, firmly rooted in the traditions of Scandinavian design.
The Aarhus School of Architecture has seamlessly integrated into the city, becoming a dynamic and community-driven hub for innovation. Architecture here is shaped through collaboration with residents, the municipality, businesses, design studios, the construction industry, entrepreneurs, and cultural institutions, fostering a vibrant exchange of ideas and knowledge.
In keeping with the school’s rich traditions and heritage, B.rge Mogensen’s iconic Spoke-Back Sofa, J39 chairs, and matching wooden tables remain in use more than 50 years after their original acquisition. The school’s original logo, designed by architect and graphic designer Naur Klint — son of the renowned Kaare Klint — is also engraved on the backs of the chairs, further anchoring its historical significance.
