Axel Berg (architect)

He graduated at the Technical University of Denmark in 1877 and at the Royal Danish Academy in December 1880.

[1] Berg, who practiced a Historicist approach, had a good sense of which style to use for each of his projects.

His first project was the almost complete renovation of Bregentved in the Rococo style (1891), for which he was awarded the C. F. Hansen Medal in 1893.

In addition to country houses, he designed a number of banks and office buildings, including Privatbanken's headquarters in various styles (1911).

[1] He was of the last generation of historicist architects who freely imitated or worked various historical styles.
