Entasis Architects

Providing master plans, construction designs, landscape architecture, and financial and political analysis, the 20 employees of Entasis Architects wear many hats. Christian Cold, director and co-founder of the firm, tells Scan Magazine why his firm, despite its success, has chosen to remain and work as a small multidisciplinary unit rather than expand in size. When Entasis sent in their master plan for a new Copenhagen district on the old grounds of the Carlsberg Brewery, they were not alone; 218 other architect firms from 35 countries also had their hopes set on the project. Nonetheless, it was the small Danish company that won the job.
