The Danish Institute in Rome is one of the architect Kay Fisker's main works, and it is still attracting a great deal of international attention. It was also Kay Fisker's last work, and he died two years before its inauguration.This new large and beautiful book tells the story of the construction of the Danish Institute in Rome and the restoration of it up to the 50th anniversary.During the restoration, the task has been to preserve the architectural expression and at the same time satisfy several needs that did not exist in 1967, such as energy optimization, ventilation and wireless internet. And it should be solved as discreetly as possible.The book also tells the story of Kay Fisker's life and other works, and ti is thoroughly illustrated with Jens Markus Lindhe's photographs.

This exquisite book unveils the genius of Kjaerholm, a Danish furniture designer whose keen eye lent his work a sense of lyrical elegance unparalleled in Denmark’s rich design history. His work reveals a striking ability to evoke a sense of continuity and flow with seemingly incongruous materials, as varied as steel, leather, cane, and glass, for example. Throughout his work, Kjærholm undoubtedly fulfilled his goal of “making form a part of function.” Written by leading furniture experts and architects who elucidate different facets of this remarkable artist’s life and work, this book also includes stunning photographs of his furniture, captured by his friend Helmer-Petersen.
