History \u2013 a pioneer of modern Danish architecture since 1946 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

KHR Architecture was founded in 1946 by Gunnar Krohn and E. Hartvig Rasmussen \u2013 hence the three initials KHR, which have stuck ever since. Then, as now, the focus is on creating functional and innovative architecture with an unwavering focus on the users and the context of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all began with the design of the Atlas engineering works, which was heavily inspired by post-war American factory buildings. KHR became a pioneer of new Danish architecture, drawing inspiration from international trends whilst adapting them to the local context. The crowning glory was University of Odense<\/a> in 1971, whose structural expression and level of detail set new standards for the architecture of the time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
