Arne Jacobsen
It is said that as a child, growing up in Copenhagen, Arne Jacobsen painted on Victorian wallpaper in his bedroom. But young Arne did not cover his walls with typical childish drawings nor did he paint the wallpaper decorated with a boyish blue. Instead, he decided to paint his room entirely of white. His decision may seem trivial today, but at the beginning of the twentieth century the white walls were not yet fashionable. From the beginning, Arne Jacobsen was ahead of his time.
