Designer
Jørgen Kastholm (1931–2007) and Preben Juhl Fabricius (1931–1984) were Danish architects that collaborated from 1961 onwards. Kastholm, a blacksmith, and Fabricius, a cabinet maker, often managed to make the best of their differing backgrounds in their works. Although the collaboration only lasted about ten years and the pair only designed a handful of items, many of them have been chosen to museums as prime examples of Danish modernism.
