The arts, media and government came together in their ambitions for this project, and as a consequence shaped the identity of an ambitious and confident young nation. In selecting Danish architect J\u00f8rn Utzon, the Danish cultural project became intimately bound to the Australian one, two cultures in one design,\u2019 Professor Burke said.<\/p>\n<p>Speakers at the <em>Architecture makes the City<\/em> symposium include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>DENMARK<\/strong><br \/>\nJan Utzon \u2013 Utzon Architects<br \/>\nJohannes Molander Pedersen and Morten Rask Gregersen &#8211; NORD Architects<br \/>\nDan Stubbergaard \u2013 COBE<br \/>\nJakob Fenger and Bj\u00f8rnstjerne Christiansen \u2013 Superflex<br \/>\nMette Kynne Frandsen &#8211; Henning Larsen<\/p>\n<p><strong>AUSTRALIA<\/strong><br \/>\nRichard Johnson \u2013 Johnson Pilton Walker<br \/>\nCamilla Block \u2013 Durbach Block Jaggers<br \/>\nGerard Reinmuth \u2013 Terroir<br \/>\nRachel Healy \u2013 City of Sydney<br \/>\nJohn Choi \u2013 CHROFI<br \/>\nMatthew Bennett \u2013 Bennett and Trimble<\/p>\n<p>This is a rare opportunity to hear from some of Denmark\u2019s most exciting architectural talents, including Johannes Molander Pedersen and Morten Rask Gregersen from NORD Architects and Mette Kynne Frandsen from Henning Larsen.<\/p>\n<p>Johannes Molander Pedersen and Morten Rask Gregersen established NORD in 2003 as founding partners, and since then have engaged in a broad range of assignments within architecture, urban development and societal innovation.<\/p>\n<p>NORD Architects is particularly recognised for its work on public institutions, such as Copenhagen Centre for Cancer and Health, House of Natural Sciences and Vardheim Healthcare Centre \u2013 projects that redefine how architecture performs within the realm of public service.<\/p>\n<p>Mette Kynne Frandsen has been part of the management team at Henning Larsen Architects since 1998 and was appointed CEO of the company in 2003.
