ELENA MARCHETTI, 2024
Elena Marchetti is an architect and urban designer based in
Copenhagen. Her work spans private residences, cultural buildings and
public space, with a persistent focus on daylight, material honesty, and
the social life of buildings.
Trained at the Royal Danish Academy and ETH Zurich, she founded her
studio in 2015 after eight years with Lundgaard & Tranberg, where she
led the competition team for the Danish Broadcasting House extension.
Today the studio is a team of six, working across Denmark, Switzerland
and southern Spain.
