At Cortina & Käll, we design spaces to live in and to love. 

As architects, we believe it is our job to elevate ordinary life,
to discover and cherish beauty.

No matter the place or the project,
we believe in authentic design,
execution and materials.

 

Our dedication to timeless design is
complemented by a commitment to
building purposeful, productive relationships. 

 

It is these abiding architectural qualities,
together with our clients,
that give our work meaning.

Our reach is global –
from Ulricehamn and Gothenburg
to Doha, Mexico City and New York,
our clients can be found all over the world.
