“3XN was
founded in 1986 and is today one of the most innovative international architecture firms. 3XN’s approach to architecture can
be explained by three main points: We strive to create architecture that fosters a dynamic social interaction, synergy and
enhanced well-being for the users of the building. We welcome complexity and view the challenges of a project, program and
brief as positive drivers for creating distinctive architecture with a clear statement.
We
value context and put focus on developing a design that impacts its surroundings in a positive way; adding new qualities to
its location, neighbourhood and city.“
Jesper Bork joined 3XN in 2014. Since 2019
he is the director of the headquarter in Copenhagen and responsible for managing and expanding the staff of more than 100
architects and engineers, while still contributing his strong project development and design skills to a number of our projects.
His wealth of design and project experience includes work throughout Europe and the United States, which has made him particularly
adept at, and comfortable working with, international clients and project teams. Jesper studied architecture at the Southern
California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) in Los Angeles, as well as the University of Applied Arts in Vienna and the
Institute of Architecture & Design at Aalborg University, from which he graduated in 2005.
Jesper
is a registered Architect in Denmark and a member of the Examiner Corps under the Danish Ministry of Science.
