Rumgehør is a young and vibrant studio practice working in the heart of Aarhus, Denmark. Believing that there is an untapped potential in the cross-disciplinary practices, we seek to connect architecture, design, arts, social innovation and teaching in all of our ambitious projects. This way of thinking is the foundation with which we rethink the framework of physical spaces, always seeking to create a dialogue between space and user.
We believe that this dialogue will not only inspire, but also activate existing, but overlooked, potential needs for development. In order to become the creative melting pot, we strive for, we have placed three main cornerstones as the foundation for our studio: Architecture, Design, Arts, Social Innovation and Teaching.
What we do
We have a simple objective. To use architecture, design, arts, social innovation
and teaching to improve our surroundings.

Exactly because we believe that our ambitious ideals belong in every aspect life, we do not shy away from any project, big or small. No matter the assignment, we always work to create socially and environmentally sustainable projects. This means focussing on implementing our projects respectfully and harmonically into their surroundings. In this process, we always aim to facilitate a constructive dialogue between the space and its users, because reaching their goals is our goal. This dialogue then becomes the outset of our experimental, curious and creative working process, a process, which always seeks to create a deep connection between the social and the physical
-
Realising that the everyday experience carries knowledge, which can be turned into wisdom and change, we have found that involving the users of a given space is a vital tool in our process. To create the best result, we facilitate the processes, projects and workshops that will allow for the everyday experience to become the driving force for our architectural solutions. When we involve the users, we come to understand the system of hopes and concerns within which we operate, thus allowing us to create both social and environmentally sustainable solutions for the now and for the future.
What is ‘rumgehør’?
Rumgehør is the contraction of two Danish words denoting ‘space’ and ‘absolute pitch’. A musician with absolute pitch is someone capable of detecting every distinct note from each other. In a similar fashion, we specialize in detecting all the distinct social and physical factors influencing a space. Because we believe it to be a necessary prerequisite to affecting harmonious change or alterations to a room. And that very process is what we call “Rumgehør”.
