Vilhelm Lauritzen
1894 - 1984
Vilhelm Theodor Lauritzen was one of Denmark’s most important architects of his time and became one of the fathers of Danish Modernism. Today, many of his projects remain as lasting examples of what was then a new and revolutionary architecture in which form follows function. He studied butterflies with great enthusiasm, but he was first and foremost an architect and maintained through his career that architecture should be an applied art that serves all – not just the few and the privileged. Among Vilhelm Lauritzen’s most famous and acclaimed works are Copenhagen Airport’s first terminal (1939), which is today known as the Vilhelm Lauritzen Terminal, the Radiohuset broadcasting building in Frederiksberg (1945), Vega – Folkets Hus cultural centre in Copenhagen (1956) and the Danish Embassy in Washington, D.C. (1960).
Vilhelm Lauritzen was born on 10 September 1894 in the town of Slagelse, Denmark. He graduated high school from Sorø Akademi in 1912 and from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts’ School of Architecture in Copenhagen in 1921. The following year, he founded Tegnestuen Vilhelm Lauritzen (today Vilhelm Lauritzen Architects). Lauritzen’s Modernist talent also included interior design, where he created everything from door handles, ashtrays and railings to lamps, sofas, and chairs.
