Dreyers Fond is a Danish business-operating foundation established in 1976 by architect Thorvald Dreyer and attorney Margot Dreyer. It aims to promote the development of the architecture and law professions and their relationship with society. The foundation funds projects, initiatives and personal scholarships in architecture and law, focusing on legal certainty, the rule of law, sustainable and inclusive architecture, and the conditions of the professions. It is financed mainly by income from its property portfolio, mostly in the Vesterbro district of Copenhagen, where its headquarters is located in the listed Løvenborg building. The foundation also runs Dreyers Kollegie, a student residence for architecture and law students, makes the Dreyers Pris award each year, and lends out the Valencia event venue. Funding is granted through open calls and partnerships.
