Tove & Edvard Kindt-Larsen

Denmark

 

Danish couple Edvard and Tove Kindt-Larsen made a great contribution to design. Common to all their work were an astute sense of quality and an ability to work in a recognised idiom that precisely coincided with the taste of the day. Both Tove and Edvard studied with Professor Kaare Klint at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 1927. They established their design office together in 1945 and had a long career working in design and architecture throughout the 20th Century. They were diverse and eclectic designers, creating textiles, lighting, jewelry, glass, typography and more.
