awards

Over the years, Steensen Varming have been honoured to be involved on many award winning projects. Some of these are for their architecture; we are humbled to have been part of these design teams and played our little parts in their successes. Some are for engineering and lighting design, for these we are pleased that our skills have been recognised. And there are others that relate to the way we practice, in response to these, we plan to continue to improve.
