Reference excerpt

Studiestræde 24 is a Neoclassical property on Studiestræde in the Latin Quarter of Copenhagen, Denmark. The building was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1959.

History

Site history, 1689–1795 Prior to the Copenhagen Fire of 1795, the site was made up of two properties. One of the properties was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre from 1689 as No. 96 in Northern Quarter, owned by Frederik Knudsen. The other one was listed as No. 97, owned by a widow named Karen (widow of a baker). The old No. 96 was listed in the new cadastre of 1756 as No. 102 in Northern Quarter, owned by haulier Christopher Jørgensen. The old No. 96 was listed as No. 103, owned by master mason Ridder Folmer.

New building, 1795–1839 The eastern part of the building was constructed in 1797–1798. The property was home to five households at the 1801 census. Paul Christian Christensen, a manufacturer of starch, resided in the building with his wife Maria Magdalene Christensen, their four-year-old son and one maid. Christiane Jensen, a widow and probably the owner of the property, resided on the first floor with two factory workers and two maids. Anne Marie Kratzenstein, another widow, resided in the building with her 15-year-old daughter and two maids. Arnold Ludevig Kobiersky, a grocer (spæjhøker), resided in the basement with his wife Anne Cathrine Wigersløv and their two daughters (aged 12 and 15). Johanne Marie Dreyers, another widow, resided in the building with her two daughters (aged 15 and 17), a maid and two unmarried women. In the new cadastre of 1806, the property was listed as No. 88 in Northern Quarter. It belonged to a widow named Jensen at time. The decoration painter Georg Hilker was a resident in the building in 1866–67.

Johannes Høyer The property was later acquired by grocer (urtekræmmer) and starch manufacturer Johannes Høyer (1803–1857). His property was home to 15 residents in three households at the 1840 census. Høyer resided on the ground floor with his wife Caroline Høyer (née Kragerup, 1806–1879), their three children (aged two to seven), a grocer (urtekræmmersvend, employee), a grocer's apprentice, one male servant and two maids. Henriette Laursen, a widow with means, resided on the first floor with her sister Magna Løfler. Friedrich Christian Prehn, secretary and archivist in the Schleswig-Holstein-Lauenberg Chancellery, resided on the second floor with his wife Louise Prehn (née Gløerfeldt) and one maid. Høyer's property was again home to three households at the 1850 census. Johannes and Caroline Høyer resided on the ground floor with their daughter Emma, their Son Efward, Høyer's factory manager Otto Christian Theorned, two grocer's apprentices, a male servant and two maids. Henriette Lovsen and her sister Magna Løfter still lived in the first-floor apartment. Frederikke Christine Schmidt (née von Ludsou), resided on the second floor with her daughters Ludovika and Caroline Schmidt, her sister Martha von Lütezour and niece Sophia Von Lütezour. Caroline Høyer was still the owner of the building at the 1860 census. She lived in one of the apartments with her four children (aged 16 to 26) and the lodger Harry Kleilbuth. Wilhelm Julius Andersen, a grocer (urtelræmmer), resided on the ground floor with his employee Christian Olfert Nielsen. Johan Frederik Johansen, a divorced restaurateur, resided on the first floor with his nine-year-old son, an 11-year-old niece and two lodgers (one of them a cook, possibly an employee). Niels Mathiesen, a master mason, resided in the building with his 11-year-old son, a housekeeper and a maid. On 11 August 1765, Høyer's daughter Pouline Christine Høyer (1840-) narried to the prominent furniture manufacturer Severin Jensen.

Theodor Rich The property was later acquired by Theodor Rich (also referred to as P. Th. Rich). Om 1874, he had acquired the chemical-technical factory P. Sørensen & Co. (founded in 1852, whether it was already located at Studiestræde 24 when he bought it is not known). He established a chemical factory in Studiestræde 24 and some of the adjacent buildings. The product range included shoe polish, pomade, fish glue and baking powder. Rich's building was home to 25 residents at the 1880 census. Frederik Ludvig Hansen, a businessman (grosserer), resided on the first floor with his wife Caroline Juliane Hansen, their three children (aged four to 14) and a senior clerk (employee). Edvard Sunckenberg, another businessman (mægler), resided on the second floor with his wife Constance Sunckenberg, their 13-year-old son and one maid. H. R. Sørensen, a grocer (urtekræmmer), resided in the basement with an apprentice. Niels Petersen (no profession mentioned) and Dorthea Petersen resided on the first floor of the side wing with their four children (aged six to 12) and a lodger. Henrik Jensen, a workman, resided on the second floor of the side wing with his wife Henriette Frederikke Jensen and his three children (aged one to 13).

In 1887–99, Rich expanded the building westwards. In 1904, Rich took his sons Axel and Einer Rich as partners. The firm was from then on also known as Th. Rich & Sønner. The factory was later continued by his descendants and remained at the site for more than 80 years.

Later history The building was later for many years home to Nordisk Hustelefonfabrik. It was also the first Danish premises of Dutch company Philips (1926) and Swedish company L. M. Ericsson (1930). The printing business Kruckow-Waldorff A/S (originally Sophus Kruckow) was another tenant. The Communist Workers Party purchased the entire building in 1978. The publishing house Oktober and the newspaper Arbejderavisen were also based in the building. They were from around 1980 joined by the image bureaus Alfa and 2. Maj were also based in the building on the upper floors. The Communist Workers Party's premises were in 1989 taken over by the Red–Green Alliance.

Architecture The building is seven bays wide. The five eastern bays date from 1798 while the two western ones date from the extension in 1887–88. The facade is decorated with seven Ionic pilasters.

Today The Red–Green Alliance is still headquartered in the building.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Studiestræde 24

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Studiestræde 24 claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Studiestræde 24 before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Studiestræde 24 ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Studiestræde 24

In research: Studiestræde 24 appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Studiestræde 24 in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Studiestræde 24 is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Buildings and structures completed in 1798, Listed buildings and structures in Copenhagen, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Studiestræde 24 outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
