Copenhagen. Architecture & Design

Copenhagen is not just the capital of Denmark, but also the international seat of cutting edge design by such modern masters as Arne Jacobsen, Jørn Utzon and Verner Panton. All have left their indelible mark on the cityscape and the great tradition of bold and exceptional spaces continues. A number of highly important buildings have been erected in the last few years (the new library by Schmidt, Hammer & Lassen and the Opera House by Henning Larsens Tegnestue) and this guide provides the reader with a quick and handy reference to each and every one. Christian Datz and Christof Kullmann are architects who write for leading German publications such as Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and deutsche bauzeitung.
