Soria Moria Steiner kindergarten was the last building Sandved designed before he died.

He was born in Sandnes and received his architectural education at the Norwegian Institute of Technology in 1937. He established his own practice in Haugesund. His architecture developed from classical modernism to a form of critical regionalism, using local building motifs and symbols. In 1948 he moved from Oslo to Haugesund to work on ship interiors. He made all the interiors for Christian Haaland's new freight liner's, the «Concordia Line». He designed many different building types, including public, commercial, residential buildings. Sandved was working as an architect to the late 1980s.

From 5 February 1948 to his death he was married to Marit (b. Furulund) Sandved (1918–2009).[2] In the 1950s he was strongly influenced by Rudolf Steiner and his anthroposophy. Sandved also participated actively in the public sphere, defending the composer Fartein Valen and his atonal polyphonic music in the local newspapers. In the 1990s the painter Odd Nerdrum discovered that David Sandved was his biological father.[3][4][5]
