The completion of Ringe Prison

16.01.2025

We have marked the completion of Ringe Prison with the expansion of 50 new cells across 10 sections.

The result is a modern building that is not only about functionality, but also about creating an environment that is safe and human.

About us

Since the studio was established in 1944, Alex Poulsen Architects has been a regular partner and advisor to a wide range of public and private institutions, where APA has solved projects within extensive new construction, transformation and retrofitting of existing buildings, carrying out projects in Denmark and abroad.

Our architectural philosophy is built on a powerful foundation: our studio's unique blend of competencies deeply rooted in the Nordic architectural tradition. Our core design parameters of functionality, quality, and spatial excellence are seamlessly integrated with a sustainability conscious approach.
