Jan Hamer is the founder of the online platform Holiday Architecture. He started it 16 years ago in Denmark. When the architect helped a friend there to build a modern-style holiday home, he noticed that such properties were difficult to find on the internet. Owners of modern holiday homes, in turn, usually had problems reaching architecture-savvy travellers. In the meantime, the platform Holiday Architecture has developed into a portal with 560 holiday homes from Norway to the Canary Islands.
