ABOUT US
STRÅ is an Oslo-based architecture practice engaged in the fields of architecture and urban design. The office was established in 2021 and is directed by Anders Byng Strøm and Gustav Jerlvall Jeppsson.
Working for a mixture of private and public clients, the office portfolio contains a diverse selection of projects, ranging from bespoke vacation homes and villas to large-scale buildings, public spaces and strategic planning. Rooted in the Scandinavian design tradition, our work is characterized by both rigor and playfulness.
Our office is situated in a storefront space in Majorstua where we’ve created a small coworking community of creative professionals. Feel free to drop in for a chat and a coffee.

APPROACH / PROCESS
At STRÅ, every project is approached as a unique opportunity to create meaningful contributions to our built environments. Recognizing that no project can exist independently, we are firm believers in establishing intentions that place our projects in a broader context. We see our work as existing on a timeline, with roots in the past, that reflect current ideas, ideals and values, while having a place in the future.
We understand that realizing a project for many is the venture of a lifetime. It is furthermore a collaboration between client and architect that will last for many months, sometimes years. We, therefore, take pride in having good client relations, considering every commission an ongoing conversation that evolves throughout the process.
What unifies our work is how it relates to its environment, whether natural or man-made. Sensitivity to nature, urban fabrics and social dynamics are considerations of continued preoccupation that guide our processes. Coupled with a passion for balancing craftsmanship, durability, rigor and joy, our projects embody a certain sense of place, clarity of expression and considered detailing.
