I wandered through their timeless spaces, uncovering treasures from the Royal Copenhagen archives—exquisite ceramics that carry centuries of stories.

Seeing Differently: Fritz Syberg at Ordrupgaard

In the Home of Finn Juhl

Sydhavn

Moving to Sydhavn has meant inhabiting change. Once an industrial port area, this Copenhagen district now stands as a symbol of a city that evolves while remaining true to its identity. Sydhavn is a landscape under constant construction, where the new builds upon the existing without erasing it. Residential and cultural architectures emerge among repurposed […]

Forte dei Marmi — between the identity of the place and the potential of marble as a design material

Some places stay still, yet keep returning. Forte dei Marmi is one of them. A place deeply tied to my personal memories — endless summers, familiar landscapes, quiet gestures — which I now revisit with different eyes. More attentive, more design-driven. This time, my focus turned to the deep relationship between the land and marble. […]
