ARCHITECT MADE
— Case Study
Design
The collaboration between designed spaces and specifically designed objects threads through Danish architectural practice and has resulted in classics created by such renowned architects as Arne Jacobsen, Finn Juhl and Poul Henningsen. Finn Juhl’s Pelican Chair was designed for the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition of 1940 while Arne Jacobsen’s Bellevue Lamp was made for the House of the Future in 1929.
In Ark Journal VOL IV, the Case Study mingling classics with contemporary examples was shot in the Langelinie Pavilion, designed in 1954 by the Danish architect couple Eva and Niels Koppel and built between 1956 and 1958. For the restaurant in 1958, Louis Poulsen created one of the most recognisable lamps of the 20th century, Poul Henningsen’s Artichoke Lamp.

CASE STUDY
— MONUMENTAL MONOCHROME
The enduring aesthetic of Danish furniture has always been entirely in step with other contemporary design practices, ceramics, glass, textiles, and particularly architecture.
LANDON METZ
Space is important to Landon Metz. In his art, pools of colour float across canvas leaving vast areas of unprimed fabric. In his studio the same sense of space – and the importance of the negative – is evident in the blanks between sparsely scattered furniture and plants.
CASE STUDY
— PERIOD PIECES
In the unique surroundings of the house created by Danish sculptor Rikard Axel Poulsen (1887-1972) furniture, lighting and homewares by contemporary designers exhibit their serene poise, the avant-garde flanked by the archaic to create layers of history.
