New chair for the official Denmark.


My summervacation is spinning like a crazy wheel. Although my vacation has been ongoing for about a month now, I dont feel like I have truly relaxed yet.

- Have been going crazy with a room makeover of my office at home, and I now have space for all my architecture and design models from school as well as my posters from the critics - feels like an autum breeze that calms my nerves, now where its all at its right place and not thrown together in a creative mess :)

A part of my vacation has also been spend on designing ( although it´s called "time of", I cant really seem to do that! ). I am currently sketching on a competition called "New chair for the official Denmark". I am participating with Mette Risbæk which I designed RE:TABLE with.
The rules for the competition is to design a chair for the royal castle of Amalienborg - more precisely for use at fine dining and for official events. The design should be a symbol of the danish design tradition, and there are multiple demands for the design such as construction, hardware and use, good craftmanship etc. Read the competition rules here: http://www.arkitektforeningen.dk/ny-stol-officielle-danmark

Due to different reasons, Mette and I havent got so much time to design a proposal for the competition, but we feel inspired, and are determined to complete and finish out our idea. I bet there will be a lot of architects and designers who will participate in this competition, some probably more experienced than us, but it doesnt hurt to give it a try right? I look forward to showing our idea here at my portfolio site at the end of the year!
