Background
Nestled in a charming coastal town north of Copenhagen, this 1930s residence exemplifies Scandinavian design with its thoughtful layout, featuring four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two powder rooms, two living rooms, a study, a kitchen, and a boot room. Originally built in 1936 by established modernist architects Risom and Tillisch, the property is rich in architectural heritage, providing a fascinating backdrop for our renovation project. We embarked on an in-depth exploration of modernist and mid-century design principles, aiming to infuse elements from these influential styles into our work. Drawing inspiration from iconic architects such as Le Corbusier and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, we focused on incorporating stainless steel accents and elegant curved forms. Furthermore, we enriched the design with references to the works of Adolf Loos and Art Nouveau, ensuring a cohesive and inspiring aesthetic.
Our clients, a fashion designer and her husband, along with their two children, purchased this home as they returned to Denmark after years in London. With a discerning artistic sensibility, collaborating with them enabled us to integrate a unique design language that resonated with their vision.
