Biography
Brummer was born in Bogense. After attending the Danish Academy
from 1888 to 1896, he worked for Ferdinand Meldahl and Hermann Baage Storck. He initially became known for Ellestuen, a freely Kllesgrd Inn, Humlebk (1932) designed country home which was quite different from conventional houses in Denmark. He soon became one of the leading Danish architects for designing private homes between the beginning of the 20th century and the First World War including Svanemllevej 56 (1904) and Lundevangsvej 12 (1908), both in Copenhagen. He also drew on architecture from the late 18th century, for example in designing Heymans Villa in 1907 before adopting the Neoclassical style and experimenting with other approaches including simplified Functional designs which can be seen in Gurre Church (1918) and his own home (1920).[1][2] He died, aged 88, in Skovshoved.
