We aim to share how Scandinavian architecture addresses global issues, such as the climate emergency and the challenges of urbanisation. We are committed to publishing books of the highest quality that push the boundaries of architectural and design thought.
Established in 1949 as an independent commercial foundation, we have a long history of publishing the works of the most innovative architects, designers and thinkers in Denmark. With publications on architects such as Arne Jacobsen and the first edition of Life between Buildings by Jan Gehl, the Danish Architectural Press played an essential role in shaping the history of Danish design and architecture.
