An illustrated biography of the pioneering female designer who shaped a distinctly modern vision of domestic life for the postwar generation
The story of Danish midcentury architect and designer Grethe Meyer (1918-2008) spans the fields of design, culture and women's history. It illustrates the complexities of being both a single mother and a pioneering architect at a time when her male colleagues dominated the field. Her iconic designs, informed by the rhythm and needs of family life, shaped a new vision of domesticity rooted in the ideals of modernity and freedom shared by the now-canonized postwar generation of idealist architects and designers.
