Jan Olav Jensen: Intention, necessity and accident

How do we manage to realise architecture today? Is it possible to create interesting architecture without being a star?


How do we manage to realise architecture today? Is it possible to create interesting architecture without being a star? Norwegian architect Jan Olav Jensen, of Jensen and Skodvin, proposes that by the development of some quite advanced and unsentimental aesthetic skills, one has the ability to negate the process of inevitable conventionalising which results in mainstream architecture. Precision, tolerances and robustness are concerns which influence his work such as the striking Mortensurd Church, Norway.
