Fuglsang Kunstmuseum was designed by the English architect Tony
Fretton (1945), who runs his drawing office Tony Fretton Architects
Ltd. from London and is also a professor of the architecture course
at the Delft Technical University in The Netherlands. In the Danish
context Fretton is also known as the architect behind the Tietgens
Ærgrelse ("Tietgen's Vexation") project in Copenhagen, which like
the museum has been created with local assistance from the Danish
drawing office BBP arkitekter.
