Description

An intriguing look at the work of Danish architect and furniture designer Arne Jacobsen (1902-71) through a detailed study of his masterwork, the SAS House in Copenhagen, completed in 1960. Divided into chapters that examine Room 606, the only preserved area of the hotel and a 'time-capsule' of exquisite woodwork, furnishings, and custom fabrics and colour palette. Rediscovers a lost world of mid-20th century form and sensation through hundreds of rare archival photographs, original drawings and sketches, and specially commissioned, new colour photographs of Room 606.
