Can't wait. I'll gladly PAY $400 instead of the $1000 they go for now.

Any idea if it will be available for pre-order or where online it can be purchased?

Yes, it seems that it is available to preorder. The danish online book store Saxo delivers to France so I guess they deliver to the US as well (beware that even for books, shipping from Denmark is pretty expensive).

I am posting the link here but please remove it if it is against the forum rules. Note that I am in no way related to the publisher or the book store.

Thanks for posting the link. Hoping I may be able to purchase through Amazon in the future-once book is issued. Maybe I'll even get free Prime shipping. Not holding my breath, though.

Thank you for posting. They have a copy at the local university library. I'll have a look at them.

Cheers

Are these books in both Danish and English? I see there is both on the cover : )

The original is in both Danish and English. It is hard to imagine the re-print would be anything less.

Thanks, Leif. I think the conversion comes to roughly $500 Cdn for the set (before shipping)!! Pricey set of books : )

Compared to the original edition, that is a very good price. If you are interested in Danish furniture in a scholarly way at all, you have to have them.

I might have to pop for that.

A good friend let me borrow his original set. Dear god. I was so nervous something BAD was going to happen to them. They very well might have been the most expensive thing in the house at that moment. Tremendous eye candy, though.

Hi all,

just got the set from the local university library. That's what I have been looking for ages.

Looking forward to have a look at them. I am considering buying these books, though they are not cheap.

Cheers

Ernest

How exhaustive is it? Most designers you could think of covered?
