danish design
by elsebeth
Culturally speaking, Denmark has been scurrying after other countries for a number of years. Now, however, it seems that a feeling of national pride has once more emerged among many Danish initiators. No longer are people looking over their shoulder at New York, Paris, London or Stockholm... not all that much, at any rate! Instead, the gaze has been turned inwards - and this searching for something which is nationally distinctive has caused originality to blossom once again. This applies to architecture, design and art craft, where Denmark already has a proud tradition. But also within such areas as clothes design, the visual arts and gastronomy Danes are making their mark on the international stage.
I know it might be difficult to carry home but even if you dont wanna buy anything you should at least have a look at some of the shops for good design..The best example is Bang & Olufsen...
