Martin Gran stresses how Snøhetta is structured to be a collaborative, multidisciplinary and non-hierarchical workplace. The active participation of clients is essential—the design process begins only after wide-ranging discussions. Gran discusses several Snøhetta projects, including the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet, a new visual identity for Kristiana University College, the Living the Nordic Light project, a redesign of Norwegian currency, a series of exhibits at the Munch Museum, and a proposal for Obama’s presidential library.
