As an architect and senior lecturer of urban design and director of the Center for Public Space Research at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts' School of Architecture in Copenhagen, he has published several books on public space. These include "Life Between Buildings--Using Public Space" published in 11 languages; "Public Spaces Public Life", Copenhagen 1996 (co-authored with Lars Gemzøe), a winner of the Edra/PLACES Research award USA in 1999; and most recently, "New City Spaces", also co-authored with Lars Gemzøe. The books are all published and distributed by the Danish Architectural Press."
