This is the story of the development in Danish architecture from 1754 until today.

This book describes the development from Amalienborg s beautiful palaces to the Tietgen Dormitory s wonderful circular building in restaden. In 1754, Akademiet for de Skj nne Kunster (The Royal Academy of Fine Arts), was founded for the study of art and architecture.

In its own way, Denmark has managed to make original contributions to European architecture, ranging from Eigtved s Amalienborg Palace, C.F.Hansen's play with Roman classicism, M.G.Bindesb ll's Thorvaldsens Museum to Utzon's organic structuralism and Tegnestuen Vandkunsten's renewal of housing forms. All these architects were inspired by foreign ideas and foreign architects and all have led a critical dialogue with their own tradition; Henning Larsen, Friis & Moltke, Fogh & F lner, 3xNielsen, KHR, Dorte Mandrup, Lundgaard & Tranberg, B.I.G. More and more foreign architects are now working in Denmark: Zaha Hadid, Tony Fretton, Norman Foster, their works are also represented in this book.
This concise and carefully organized history of architecture will be enjoyed by both professors, students as well as laymen with an interest in architecture.
