About this Event

Current Work is a lecture series featuring leading figures in the worlds of architecture, urbanism, design, and art.

Founded by Dan Stubbergaard in 2006, Cobe is an architectural practice known for its work in urban regeneration and adaptive reuse, transforming cities into what the firm describes as “extraordinary places for everyday life.” Based in Copenhagen and inspired by the Danish capital’s evolution from an industrial port city to a global model for livability, the firm gained international attention in 2008 with its masterplan reshaping Nordhavn, Copenhagen’s former industrial harbour, into a lively waterfront district. Cobe’s design is driven by the conviction that “architecture must be built for people, shaped by its context, and designed to stand the test of time,” in the firm’s own words.

Working across urbanism, landscape design, and architecture, Cobe has developed a multi-scale portfolio of projects that range from residential complexes to urban developments, each distinguished by a rigorous commitment to revitalization, design excellence, and the creation of places that are rooted, livable, and built to endure.
