THE DESIGNER
Kim Pretzmann Olesen, who founded Nordpil Arkitekter in 2020 alongside construction architect Bashar Nasouri. Kim also teaches at the Aarhus School of Architecture.
THE PROPERTY
A 1950s summer house in Denmark. It is entered through an 'orangery' glasshouse into the kitchen and mezzanine dining room. Off the kitchen is a bathroom, office and shed. A hall connects the guest bedroom and main bedroom. Below the mezzanine is a living room.
malerlandsbyen, the artists’ colony outside the Danish village of Veksø, was founded in the 1950s. The houses here each share the same DNA – huge panoramic windows that make the fecundity of nature part of each building’s identity – and the architecture itself seems to blend with the landscape. For the artists who have lived here over the last seven decades, light has been their most precious, lasting resource.
