Johannes Paludan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johannes Paludan (1912-2001) was a Danish architect. He was the son of an important developer in Viborg, and graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Art in 1938 after having completed a degree as a constructor in Århus.

In 1942, during the occupation of Denmark, he established an architect's office in Virum. In the following decades he left a stamp on buildings in contiguously built-up urban areas of Copenhagen. He was behind the highrise blocks on Sorgenfrivang, the one-family houses on Klosterbakken and the renovation of Virum School among others.
