Projects
Gladsaxe
Extension for a 1930s Bungalow building. Project aims to create a bright living room for a family of four, with direct access to the garden both physically and visually. The new extension is connected to the ground floor and the semi-basement floor of the existing building and it improves the circulation within the house.
Copenhagen
Interior concept design for Cafe Tilda in Nørrebro, Copenhagen. The cafe is located on the ground level of a brick building designed by Danish architect Kay Fisker. The facade features warm red tones. The warm colour from the facade is brought inside in order to create a cosy seating area by the big window. Bar is designed with modular wooden elements and acts also as an exhibition surface.
Roskilde
A Danish farmhouse In Roskilde is transformed into a modern house. The total area is about 1000m2 and the interiors are designed in collaboration with Krogsgaard & Co and Whining Dog ApS. We were asked to bring together the different rooms of the house in a coherent way. The project highly focuses on reused and upcycled materials from the existing building. In addition to that natural materials, tactile surfaces and calm colours are defining the interiors.
Sæby
Interior renovation of the kitchen and living room area of a 1960s Danish Villa in Northern Jutland. We were asked to improve the space quality of the living and dining area. The project is featuring an integrated bench/storage furniture near the big window and connectig the kitchen area into the dining room with an open kitchen island. The project is developped together with Whining Dog ApS.
