Finn Juhl : Life, work, world

Finn Juhl: Life, Work, World, is the first comprehensive monograph on one of Denmark’s most influential Modernist design pioneers, and features his best-loved creations, such as his beautifully conceived 48 Chair; his interior for the Trusteeship Council Chamber at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, which introduced Danish Modernism to America; and the ticket offices that Juhl created for Scandinavian Airlines, installed in airports across the world. The book, written by the Danish author, design authority and former diplomat Christian Bundegaard, charts the designer’s rise from a teenage art fanatic with a domineering father, through to his early career in architecture, before going on to detail Juhl’s success in product design and interiors, at first within Scandinavia, then in America and the wider world.
