PRODUCT DESIGN - FRAMES

The role was to create a product design and think of new sustainable approaches in FSC wood. The design should unite one of the 17 world goals and we ended up with a flexible pendant, where the thought of a flatpacking system should create an easier transportation. The process went from first concept ideas to a finished design and a 1:1 product.

At the competition, FSC Design Award, we won both prizes: FSC Design Award and Mad&Bolig Design Award 2018. It made an opportunity to execute a

final prototype, ready for sale, in connection with Kvist Industries. Here we visited Kvist Industries in Latvia, where we together with the production team finished the final touches for the design. The final product and created a strong profile for our design and later a contract with NORR11 as royalty designers where achived. The design has been in production and on the marked in 3 years at NORR11 CPH, but now Emma and I work on taking the design to a new chapter.

Site, Jagtvej 69

Type, Pavilion

Usergroup, young homeless people, volunteers, assistens and teachers

Brief, The food community is creating a meeting point in the in-between space of Copenhagen for the homeless youth. The pavilions contain different functions that revovles around foodknowledge exchange such as; gardening, food making and dining. The community

will invovle people in the local area, people connected to Jagtvej 69 and other volunteers to help enhance friendships, social skills and personal development. The pavilions go hand in hand with participatory design and the construction gives the opportunity to be disassembled and reassembled. The thought is to let the pavilions pop-up on different locations in the city to give shelther and skills to the young homeless.

A MUSHROOM FARMERY - BANEGAARDEN

Type,

Brief, with the Planetar-vision of Aarstiderne in mind, as someone who takes responsibility for sustainability, 100% ecology, a balanced CO2 account, meals with more than 80% plants, common gardens and social responsibility. A production of An Oyster Mushroom Famery arose, since I came across Beyond Coffee, who produces mushrooms from leftover coffee grounds. I saw it as a great potential to combine the thought of the Planetar-vision and the reuse of coffee grounds to create food. The focus was to work

with showcasing the mushrooms and create an awareness of how we can create a better foodsupply and reuse our consumption.

The grounds are both a good supplement for growing organic oyster mushrooms and work as well as compost for the garden outside. By combining the knowledge from a further registration the mushroom production became landmark for designing and transforming the site. The production became the primary focus as well as working stations, zones, a grow-box and the showcase of the famery supported the spatial design.

Site, Banegaarden - Jernbanebyen, owned by Aarstiderne.

Site, Køge Havn

Brief, The idea of the project was to create a new perspective on the crematorium typology. The family should be able to follow the coffi n untill the last step and to get the opportunity of a proper goodbye.

A Chapel was implemented to give the possibillty of choosing a private

and personal ceremony. Water and green areas as well as sight of privacy was our primary design focus.

Another delivery was to make a quick sketch and idea of a columbarium. The plaster model was made in a workshop with Jacob Sebastian Bang, Rotunda.

DISCOVERING THE OCEAN RAINFOREST A SEAWEED SMOKERY - BORNHOLM

Site, Bornholm, Allinge-Sandvig

Type, new build

Brief, it revolves around a coastal path, monoliths in a rocky landscape and the interrelationship between aquatic plants and humans. It is located on Bornholm and discovers the ‘dead’ Baltic Sea and seaweed as a future food source. I saw a potential for implementing and cultivating seaweed, since it both purifies the water and has a benefit for our carbon footprint.

The project becomes a catalyst for restoring the sea and give a

new sustainable perspective on the herring smokeries of Bornholm and their cultural heritage. By making seaweed a supplement in our food palette we can reduce the CO2, eat healthier and create a responsible production that has a positive impact on our lack of resources and future.
