Arkitema is Danish architectural firm headquartered in Aarhus with branch offices in Copenhagen and from 2012 Oslo. In Sweden it is a majority owner of Arkitema Dot. Arkitema has about 200 employees and is mainly active in the Scandinavian market.

History

The firm was founded in 1969 as Arkitektgruppen Aarhus by five students from the Aarhus School of Architecture after they won a competition for the design of Køge Town Hall. They were Helge Tindal, Ole Nielsson, Michael Harrebæk, Eriling Stadager and Lars Due. In 2003 the firm changed its name to Arkitema and in 2004 it merged with AA Arkitekter to be able to expand internationally.[1]

In 2011, as part of its continued efforts to grow on the Scandinavian market, Arkitema acquired majority ownership of Swedish Dot Arkitekter.[2] The firm has also announced that it will open an office in Oslo, Norway.
