Manthey Kula is a Norwegian architecture office founded in 2004 by Beate Hølmebakk (born 1963) and Per Tamsen (born 1967). Tamsen is educated at Lund University. Hølmebakk is educated at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design where she now holds a professorship. She has served as artistic professor at Chalmers University in Gothenburg, Sweden and been a visiting professor at the University of Navarra, Spain and Cornell University, New York.

Manthey Kula’s projects are usually finely crafted buildings, constructions, and landscape interventions with a visible focus on formal and structural clarity. The work has been noted and have received recognition in the field.
