Beate Hølmebakk (born 28 November 1963 in Oslo).[1] is a Norwegian architect and professor. In 2004 she co-founded the architecture practice Manthey Kula together with Per Tamsen[2]

Hølmebakk studied architecture at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (AHO), graduating in 1991. In 1988-89 she was a visiting student at the Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture, Cooper Union. She has served as artistic professor at Chalmers University in Gothenburg, Sweden (2004-06), and been a guest professor at the University of Navarra, Spain (2014) and Cornell University, New York (2010). She is currently professor of architecture at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design (2007-)[3].

In addition to the work of Manthey Kula, Hølmebakk is known for her paper projects: architectural projects designed for a different purpose than being built. The Virgina series (1997-2000) was in 2020 acquired by the Norwegian National Museum. It consists of drawings and models of four houses conceived as interpretations of female literary characters.[4]

Manthey Kula has been nominated four times for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture - Mies van der Rohe Award (2020, 2018, 2011, 2009)[5]. In 2022 Hølmebakk received the Prince Eugen Medal for outstanding artistic achievement. In 2003, Hølmebakk received an honorary medal by the Erich Schelling Architecture Award.
