Just to mention, that the grey lamp behind the introduction, on the wall, is a design by famous Arne Jacobsen, who also designed "The Danish National Bank" and a full Hotel with all its furniture and utensils! They still have a room to rent, looking as originally intended. The famous Eeg Chair, The Swan and others come from this. And most are still being produced. You are also able to visit: Finn Juhls private home north of Copenhagen. He was invited to to make a Conference Room in The UN building which still exist. His home has been rebuilt in Japan as an exact copy with all its original Finn Juhl furniture, by a Japanese Billionaire!
wow!! I had no idea and I'm an industrial designer, I think I definitely have to visit Copenhagen again, it is filled with remarkable design and architecture.
@@yeamur Hans J. Wegner has an exhibition of his furniture in he Water-tower (former), in his birthplace, Tønder in southern Jutland. Also Børge Mogensen, who designed one of the most common ordinary chairs (As many other) during his time working as a Designer and Leader for the COOP (FDB) Furniture Factory in Jutland. We also have a special "Design Museum" in Copenhagen in which you are able to find much excellent Danish Design ("Kunstindustrimuseet", Bredgade 68, 1261 Copenhagen K)! I'm sure You will be much inspired if visiting this!! Finn
My own favorite shoes, named "Jacoform" (I'm an old man of 76!) has been produced since 1965 and got a "Danish Industrial Design Award" by then. They are totally flat and very soft in the sole, though being basically designed/constructed by Jørgen Keller, who was an Officer involved in the making of the Danish, foot shaped, Army Boots, of course with heels!!! But he was allowed free hands in making the shoes from a by then Local Shoe Factory! The actual look of the shoe was made by the Factory Designer, with an extra leather triangle on top, in front, which makes them very easy to recognize!! Today they are still being produced in Poland for less expenses than in Denmark, as the production rights became sold some years ago. Finn
By the way, Bredgade, meaning Broad-street, is rather narrow in the old part of Copenhagen, while Smallegade, meaning Narrow Street, is one of the widest in town! Finn 😁
have I mentioned that I studied industrial design and i'm a nerd when it comes to design? 🤓 yet i never heard about Arne Jacobsen or Jacoform when I was at school and now I'm in awe. Sadly I only got to visit Nationalmuseet - what amazed me the most is that you could almost see all the movements that affected Danish culture, design and architecture, I think Danish people have a strong creative sense. thank you for all these informations 🩵 though I'm so sad that I missed the Design Museum :')
i was there last month but only for a day 🥲 so i couldn't hang out as much as i wanted to, but i LOVED it! the city is so much different when it's sunny
