Thorkild Henningsen

He is best known for his design of numerous terraced housing developments, especially Bakkehusene at Bellahøj whish is listed on the Danish Registry of Protected buildings and Places.

After joining Heinrich Wenck's office, he became part of a group of young, like-minded architects which also included Povl Baumann, Hans Koch and Carl Petersen.

Bakkehusene, a terraced housing development at Bellahøj, designed in collaboration with Ivar Bentsen, was a breakthrough for him.

It was followed by a number of similar developments, including the terraces at Saltværksvej (1924), Sundvænget (1925), Bernstorffsvej (1927–28), Damvænget (1928) and Fuglebakken (1928).

The villa at Ehlersvej 13 in Hellerup shows the influence of the Neoclassical style that had become popular among his friends by the time he returned from Paris.
