Abstract
This study presents the first detailed examination of how this fascinating relationship takes place in some outstanding case-studies in Denmark and through what means. It analyses architectural key parameters from different optical lenses and design scales framing relations with the surrounding nature, to evidence the influence and transformative effect of particular traditional Japanese buildings on them. In other words, it determines how the so-called "European Japonisme" has translated into these architectural Danish landmarks, what has never been the subject of an integrated comprehensive study.
