Kaare Klint

Kaare Klint was an architect, furniture designer and visual artist and was the brother of Tage Klint, who founded the lamp company Le Klint in 1943. He was an apprentice of his father, the architect behind Grundtvig's Church, P.V. Jensen Klint and of the architect Carl Peterson, from whom he learned the Danish tradition of classic realism, as seen in Abildgaard and Bindesbøll. In order to produce furniture with the right dimensions, Klint took an interest in the measurements and movements of the human body. In 1923, Klint gained employment at the School of Furniture Design at the Academy of Fine Arts. In 1924 he became a lecturer and in 1944 he became a professor of architecture. A great influence upon Danish furniture design Through his own furniture designs and his teachings, he influenced an entire generation of Danish furniture designers. He emphasized good materials and perfect craftsmanlike manufacturing. He thus had a particularly close collaboration with Rud. Rasmussens Snedkeri (Rud. Rasmussen's Cabinetmakers, now Carl Hansen & Søn), which still produce a wide range of his classic furniture.
