Door in the Alhambra, Granada, Spain,

"Museum Wegner," Tønder, Denmark,

The Museum is a new cultural institution that will celebrate the life and legacy of Hans J. Wegner, the legendary furniture designer known worldwide as “the Master of the Chair.”

Set to rise in the marshlands outside Tönder—Wegner’s childhood hometown where he first trained as a carpenter—the museum represents both an architectural achievement and a poignant homecoming for Denmark’s design heritage.

The 5,000-square-meter museum will transform a pair of historic farm buildings dating back to 1445, weaving together centuries of craftsmanship tradition with contemporary architectural innovation.
