Paustian House
Paustian House ((デンマーク語:Paustians Hus)) is a large furniture showroom located on the waterfront in Copenhagen. Completed in 1987, it is one of the most notable works in Denmark by prize-winning architect Jørn Utzon, who also designed the Sydney Opera House. Utzon's son Kim designed two adjacent buildings which were completed in 2000.
==Architecture==
In 1985 Ole Paustian, the owner of a successful furniture business, invited Utzon to design a showroom building on the Copenhagen waterfront as an extension to one of his warehouses. Utzon sent design sketches to his sons Jan and Kim who produced final drawings and construction plans.〔("Jørn Utzon, 2003 laureate, Biography" ), ''PritzkerPrize.com''.

Inspiration for the design came to Utzon while he was walking through a forest of beech trees. In his own words: "Walking in a Danish beech forest is like going through a hall of pillars. This hall of pillars dissolves into branches and into a leafy crown represented by the roof."〔("Om Paustian" ), ''Paustian.dk''. Retrieved 20 September 2011.〕 The airy, three-storey building with extensive exhibition space is indeed reminiscent of a forest. Standing on the edge of the harbour, its external pillars give it a temple-like appearance.〔Kim Dirkinck-Holmfeld, "Guide til Dansk Arkitektur År 1960-1995", ''Arkitektens Forlag'', Copenhagen 1995, p. 326. ISBN 87-7407-112-2〕 Inside, tall white fan-topped columns stretch up to the ceiling where they are connected by geometrical archways. Utzon's son Kim, who helped with the original plans, went on to expand the complex with two new buildings housing a restaurant and a yacht club as well as extensions to the showrooms.〔 Utzon's daughter Lin contributed to the interior decoration including the blue tiling along the wooden staircases.〔(Laura Stadler-Jensen, "The Paustian Experience" ), ''Copenhagen Exclusive'', February 2008.
