How do designers experience their cities as locals?</p><p>Many a listicle have mentioned Copenhagen as one of the most livable cities in the world with the happiest residents. How could that be? “Perhaps [it is] because Copenhagen is designed for people — for life. From architecture to infrastructure to food and culture, Copenhagen has plenty to offer”, describes <a href="http://archinect.com/news/article/141208175/the-queen-s-architect-listen-to-archinect-sessions-one-to-one-2-with-jens-bertelsen" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Jens Bertelsen</a>, CEO and a founding partner of locally based practice <a href="http://archinect.com/bertelsenscheving" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Bertelsen & Scheving</a>.

The Queen's Architect: listen to Archinect Sessions One-to-One #2 with Jens Bertelsen Amelia Taylor-Hochberg2015-11-16T14:01:00-05:00>2016-02-16T18:36:48-05:00
<img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/zp/zp00vtme1nozsdet.jpg?fit=crop&auto=compress%2Cformat&enlarge=true&w=1200" border="0" /><p>This week on the podcast, I speak with Jens Bertelsen – a Danish architect specializing in historic preservation, who since 2011 has called himself "The Queen's Architect." Bertelsen’s official title under the Danish monarch (Queen Margrethe II) translates to something like “Royal Building Inspector,” “Royal Builder” or “Royal Surveyor,” but essentially means he's responsible for making sure that all the structures belonging to the monarchy stay in shape, and ideally, in use. This includes buildings like the Danish Parliament and the royal family’s winter home, Amalienborg Castle.</p><p>Bertelsen's firm, <a href="http://bsarkitekter.dk/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Bertelsen & Scheving</a>, was founded in 2007 in Copenhagen, and specializes in historic preservation work. Bertelsen will hold the Royal Builder position until 2016.</p><p>Listen to Archinect Sessions One-to-One #2 with <strong>Jens Bertelsen</strong>:</p><ul><li><strong>iTunes</strong>: <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/neil-denari/id1057340260?i=356797877" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Click here to listen and subscribe to the new "Archinect Sessions One-to-One" podcast</a></li><li><strong>SoundCloud</strong>: <a href="http://soundcloud.com/archinect" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">click here to follow Archinect</a></li><li><strong>RSS</strong>: subscribe with any of your ...</li></ul>
