The rest of the world looks to Scandinavia for innovative design and collective social values, but the region didn’t become this way overnight. Traveling here allows us to unpack the story behind a range of impactful ideas, from the bike lanes and incredible architecture of Copenhagen, to the changing communities of Sweden.

Atlas Workshops programs in Scandinavia take an integrated approach, combining equity, governance, urban planning, and sustainability. The deep culture of design provides an intriguing critique on the values in modern society, and inspiration for a future that is both technical and human. We also take advantage of the ease of traveling the region by train to reinforce our learning in a number of cities, from Malmö/Copenhagen to Stockholm and in between.
