Architecture constitutes a vital setting for life and growth in Denmark and, accordingly, for our welfare.
With “A nation of architecture - Denmark”, the government aims to present a complete and comprehensive architectural policy. A policy in which government players contribute actively and concretely to the development of continued architectural quality. A policy that stimulates architectural quality in a broad sense - from single-family detached houses to national planning, from education to global marketing.
It is the government’s intention that the architectural policy will contribute to the development of architecture as a Danish stronghold and to create an increasing awareness and debate about the significance, conditions and possibilities of architecture in Denmark. The policy is intended as a contribution to a broad and lively discussion on how to retain and further develop architectural quality as a central conduit of culture - with local, national and global perspectives for growth and welfare in Denmark.
