Summary:

"Finn Juhl was part of the ... movement known as Danish Modern, which lasted from around 1930 until the end of the 1960s ... One of the first to achieve international success, [he] paved the way for Danish Modern to become an international 'brand' for Danish furniture design. This book shines a spotlight not only on Finn Juhl's house but also on Juhl as a modernist and man of the world ... It focuses on the period from [his] first experimental furniture in the 1930s through the golden age in the 1940s and 1950s to today, when the furniture has experienced a renaissance as design classics and collector's items"--Publisher's description.
