Carl Thorvald Andersen[lower-alpha 1] (9 March 1835 – 10 September 1916)[1] was a Danish carpenter, who became the structural engineer and architect at the Holmen Naval Base in the second part of the 19th century. In this position, he designed a number of buildings for the use of the Royal Danish Navy in line with the accelerating technological development of the day. Today, these buildings are used by, among others, the Kunstakademiets Arkitektskole and the Rhythmic Music Conservatory. Andersen was succeeded in the position of architect by Olaf Schmidth [da] in 1899.[2]
