Nord Architects Copenhagen contribution to the exhibition displays a Nordic sensibility that builds on the key methodologies of Utzon. The six windows are the hero element of the exhibition, paying tribute to Utzon’s renowned bay windows (the so-called Can Lis windows) each presenting a theme or characteristic of Danish design tradition, such as ‘materiality’, ‘craft’, ‘technology’, ‘human’, ‘pragmatism’, and ‘desire’. The exhibition features a foyer and six window installations of timeless design classics from the Utzon era along with contemporary, innovative and experimental design. The exhibition is curated exclusively to mark the work of Danish architect, Mr Jørn Utzon, and the 40th anniversary of the Sydney Opera House, which has had an enduring influence on architecture and structural design worldwide. The exhibition will brand Denmark, “Danish” and Danish brands in Australia.
