Description: 

Kaminsky Arkitektur is an award-winning architectural firm with recognitions at the Green Dot Award, the MIPIM Awards and the World Architecture Festival. We have won several open international architectural competitions such as Strandbaden in Falsterbo, Kjøpmannsgata in Trondheim and Flensburg Harbor in Reykjavik.

We are recognized for our strong positioning on sustainability, where we are an active voice. For far too long, architecture has been perceived as surface, decorations that can be added at the end of a process, instead of using it as a powerful tool that can improve our world. We want to design buildings that make people happy and have a minimal ecological footprint.

With commitment and professionalism, we create added value for our customers.

Joakim Kaminsky has been awarded the Carl Larsson Scholarship and Young Swedish Form. He has a background as an architect at UN-Studio and Wingårdhs. Joakim teaches regularly at Chalmers Arkitektur and has also taught at the architecture schools in Stockholm, Lund, Århus and Trondheim.

The office was founded in 2007 by Fredrik Kjellgren and Joakim Kaminsky as Kjellgren Kaminsky Architects. In 2021, Fredrik left the office, which today is run by Joakim Kaminsky under the name Kaminsky Arkitektur.
