Christian Hanak
Curator Scandinavian-Architects.com
[email protected]

Born 1966 in Denmark, upbringing in Switzerland. Returned to Denmark, studied architecture in Copenhagen and Milan. Working as architect, curator and publisher in the field of architecture and urban devlopment, focusing on danish and european architecture. Joined PSA publishers this year to relaunch and strengthen the focus on new generations of nordic architects.

I believe that good architecture applies to all aspects of the building. Neither design or function, technique, economy or proces can be considered seperately. Architecture has a social dimension, it makes a difference and relates to everyone. Architects with intention, empathy and thouroughness make buildings that actively can change peoples lives.
Worldwide buildings account for 40% of CO2 emissions. A contemporary approach to designing buildings is to reduce and optimize the consumption of energy.
