Ark Journal Vol IX

In ARK JOURNAL VOLUME IX you can delve into the rich architectural heritage of Copenhagen. Pay a visit to the THORVALDSEN MUSEUM, the city’s oldest, in a photo essay by architect Mathias Mentze. Visit an exhibition by SEAN SCULLY who discusses his career with David Risley. A special insert showcases the work of Copenhagen-based artist ALBERT GRØNDAHL, a photographer who explores the intersection of personal narratives and cultural and historical references.

The wide-ranging homes in Ark Journal Volume IX, from Europe to Mexico and Los Angeles, illustrate the creativity and hard work that goes into renovation, restoration, and extension, considering what is already there and what can be imagined for the future. Starting close to home, you can wander through the beautiful listed Copenhagen apartment of artist couple, ANN SOPHIE VON BÜLOW AND ULRIK HELTOFT who were at pains while renovating to preserve its soul but also make it a family home.

Heading to Milan, you can look at the meticulous details of the studio and the home of architects FANNY BAUER GRUNG AND DAVID LOPEZ QUINCOCES, where the past has been reconfigured but also embedded with elements of fantasy for the future. In Mexico, you can visit two projects firmly connected to the rich national heritage that blends both indoors and outdoors.
