1000 pages about new Danish architecture. Through 10 buildings, the book provides a vital signal of the latest Danish architecture—from Bjarke Ingels (BIG) to Dorte Mandrup. Each volume unfolds a single building and portrays the architect behind.

The 10 buildings also represent 10 current themes in the contemporary architecture debate. Through an essay and an in-depth interview with the architect, the interview format ensures an informal description, while the essay complements with background knowledge.

New Danish Architecture will be a part of the UNESCO World Capital of Architecture in 2023 in Copenhagen.
