David Thulstrup

David Thulstrup is a Copenhagen-based architect who designs private homes, restaurants and hotels internationally.
He founded his studio in 2009 following formative years with Jean Nouvel in Paris and Peter Marino in New York, where he developed a rigorous foundation in craft and architectural discipline.

David’s approach is human-centred, defined by a deep sensitivity to materiality, light and place. From this sensibility, his architecture grows naturally from its context with integrity and endures over time.

Among his most recognised works are the Michelin-starred restaurants Noma, Ikoyi, Alouette and Aure. In 2023, Phaidon Press published his first monograph, David Thulstrup: A Sense of Place, written by Sophie Lovell, documenting projects across hospitality, retail and private homes.
