Knud Holscher is one of the most famous and award-winning architects and designers in Denmark with more than 40 years of experience. He was born in 1930 and got famous as an architect and designer very early ind his life. This may have been founded in the fact that he learned from the very best - he had Arne Jacobsen as a teacher at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, and was afterwards employed by Jacobsen in his studio in Charlottenlund.

Later, Holscher became an employee of KHR Arkitekter, where he designed Odense University, parts of Copenhagen Airport as well as many other industrial and commercial buildings in Denmark.
