We take a look at Henning Larsen’s design for the Fritz Hansen pavilion, unveiled in Copenhagen during 3 Days of Design For 3 Days of Design , Fritz Hansen takes over the garden of the Designmuseum Danmark , joining forces with architecture firm Henning Larsen to create a specially designed pavilion in conversation with the leafy surroundings.
‘Celebrating the 150-year anniversary of Fritz Hansen, we wanted to create a spatial experience that makes a sustainable home for the furniture it exhibits,’ says Henning Larsen partner Eva Ravnborg. ‘The pavilion is inspired by the garden it is situated in, creating a hybrid space with fluid transitions between inside and out.’
The pavilion’s minimalist design is characterised by a shell-like solid wood structure, featuring a slanted roof and walls made of a modular motif that conveys a sense of connection between the indoor and surrounding spaces, conversing with the greenery of the garden. The transparent material inserted between the wooden slats lets in the daylight, bathing the space in soft light by day, and glowing in the evening darkness.
With circular design principles in mind, the architects created an installation that is easy to disassemble, with the idea of materials being repurposed in the ongoing reconstruction of Fritz Hansen’s Allerød headquarters. As well as a stage for creative talks and design conversations, the pavilion also displays Fritz Hansen’s anniversary collection, introduced at the Copenhagen design event for the first time.
