Poul Kjærholm is amongst the greatest personalities in Danish furniture design in the post-war period, and he is perhaps the furniture designer who has most uncompromisingly searched for a simplification, purification of all superfluity, so that his work stands out clearly and survives the test of time becomes timeless. His works are finished to a unique degree. Preparation of materials, clear distinction and linking between construction elements, and reductions in thickness of materials to an absolute minimum created furniture whose elegance is without comparison in Danish furniture design. Kjærholm's production is unparallelled as Danish design at its very best.

The private single-family house is by far the most popular form of housing, and because of its size, it is a popular project with architects. In this book, 15 international examples are presented, reviewing the most important aspects of construction including the use of wood, steel, brickwork and concrete which have all become established materials for this type of building. All plans and details from the base to the roof have been painstakingly researched with the high degree of competence typical of the review Detail and the uniform presentation makes the information immediately accessible, inviting comparison and analysis. The authors provide explanatory introductions to the fundamental aspects of planning, from the design of the floor plans to the realisation, and they set this type of building within the context of the 20th century, pointing towards the potential developments of the single family house.
