Helle Degn, Morten Vedelsbøl. DEVE Architecture

DEVE is a young architecture and design office based in Copenhagen, Denmark.  It was established by Helle Degn and Morten Vedelsbøl in 2007. The structure of the company shifted in January of  2011, to become three distinct branches: DEVE Architecture ApS, DEVE Design ApS & DEVE Gallery ApS.

DEVE began as a symbiosis between an architectural office and an exhibition space specializing in architectonic artwork. The architecture office works at every scale and stage of the design process, from product design to urban planning.  While the creation of expressive architectural forms is important, at DEVE. it is vital that the design process be grounded in context, social analysis, and sustainability.
