Enjoy a sensuous, minimalist installation of work by the internationally acclaimed Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto. This is the first time his work has been presented in Denmark in a solo exhibition. One large, 3-D sketch, made of 500 metres of steel wire, frames a presentation of 12 different architectural projects. Rooted in Fujimoto’s design philosophy, all of them seek to create a correlation between nature and architecture.
