About the Item

A first edition soft cover published in 2002, with an introduction by Carsten Thau and Kjeld Vindum followed with an essay by Marie-Louise Jensen and Maria Wettergren and 80 pages of photographs of furniture designs with brief descriptions. Arne Jacobsen is remembered best for his furniture designs but most of the best-known ones came about as part of a complete project that he was doing, such as the SAS Hotel and St Catherine's College in Oxford where he designed everything from the building to the furniture. Most of the furniture designs were the result of a cooperation with furniture manufacturer Fritz Hansen while his lamps and light fittings were developed with Louis Poulsen, examples of which are shown in this book.

Modern Danish Furniture by Esbjorn Hiort (Book)
Located in North Yorkshire, GB
Modern Danish Furniture is the third volume of a series of books on modern Danish applied art. This volume, like the earlier ones, is edited by the Danish architect Esbjorn Hiort, M.A.A., who has written the introduction. While Danish silver and Danish ceramics have long been well known and in great demand in foreign countries - especially among collectors - it has only been during the past ten years or so that Danish furniture has gained an international reputation. In his introduction, the author describes the modern development in this field, explains the reasons for the high artistic and technical standard of Danish furniture, and points out the characteristic details of the work of the leading Danish furniture designers. In the picture section there are numerous illustrations of unique pieces of the cabinet-maker's art as well as of fine examples of Danish commercial furniture...
