In addition, the company has a particular long history within healthcare. Hospitals, for instance, play a crucial role in a welfare society by fostering a strong sense of community in welcoming and spectacular surroundings. Hospital buildings serve a purpose beyond mere functionality, reflecting a belief that we are all equal with shared thoughts, hopes, and concerns.

C. F. Møller’s architectural quality is driven by such values and prioritizes optimal daylight conditions, carefully selected natural materials and surfaces, and integration with landscape design and greenery.

It is extremely important for the company to keep a close dialogue with clients and to discuss problems and solutions.
