Måns Tham
Måns is an architect and urban strategist based in Stockholm.
His practice makes architecture that stand out and make sense.
The work ranges from private residences to community-based urban design and self-initiated projects to discuss urgent matters and reach out beyond the architectural profession. The architectural or urban end-result is always the goal while the process and method vary depending the project.
Before starting his own practice, Måns worked for 8 years at renowned architecture firms as an architect and project leader. He has worked in Sweden, France and the US with projects ranging from master-plans to interior design. Måns has taught as an adjunct faculty member at KTH School of Architecture for many years and lectures frequently.
