A member of the Danish Academy Council, a government advisor on architecture and art, and assistant professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts - School of Architecture, it is hard to believe Johnny Svendborg only set up his practice in 2007. The firm now employs ten architects at its Copenhagen base. Of our brief, he says: 'A summer house should accentuate a certain dialogue with the landscape and make space for intimacy.' His retreat is designed off a curved deck and around a core defined by a glass roof, with transparent walls that can be opened, highlighting the house's interaction with the landscape, framing its views and connecting the interior with the outside terraces
