Career

During the first part of his career, Ingemann collaborated with his father. The collaboration lasted until his father's death in 1911. His first independent work was Gutenberghus on Gothersgade in Copenhagen. The design was influenced by German Hugendstil architecture, with Alfred Messel's Wertheim department store in Berlin as a possible source of inspiration.^[1]

Personal life

Ingemann was married twice. His first wife was Anna Møller (1871-1900), a daughter of architect Georg Ebbe Wineken Møller and Constance Sophie Louise Wienberg. They were married on 6 May 1898 in Copenhagen. On 8 October 1901, he was married to Ida Karberg (1879-=, daughter of the businessman Peter Karberg and Helene Dorothea Karberg.^[1]
