SHOWROOM
GARDE HVALSOE
2019
Architecture and
interior design of a flagship showroom and office for cabinetmaker Garde
Hvalsøe in Copenhagen, Denmark. Applying a residential approach, the open plan
space in a former car assembly workshop is set up as ‘homes within the home’ to
showcase craftsmanship and many bespoke possibilities from kitchens, to walk-in
closets and a wine room. Existing concrete columns set the axis while
custom-designed floor-to-ceiling shelves act as spatial dividers. The entrance
is defined by a monolithic pavilion-like architectural structure in dark smoked
oak that creates a transition between the outside and the calm space within.
Custom furniture includes a 12-seater table of Dinesen ash planks stained light
blue, metal and stone tables and there are four custom-designed and digitally
fabricated lamps, three in aluminum and one in oxidized copper.
