A CALM PLACE
First launched with an exhibition on 12th of June, 2024.
Curated by Sara De Campos and Sébastien El Idrissi.
The Danish conception of modern life, specifically the way of creating livable spaces, offers a great deal to today‘s designers. The close relationship with nature, the thoughtful and careful use of natural materials or spaces, the allowance of flexible uses – are just some of the points that seem more pertinent to our contemporary context than ever. In this exhibition, the Korshage house, built in 1960 by Erik Korshagen on the north coast of Denmark, serves as a prime example of this thinking. Using it as a spatial and conceptual link, we bring together an international group of designers to showcase their contemporary furniture in the spirit of the historic site. In this way, the exhibition will create a link between Danish home culture and its influence on today‘s global design landscape. While highlighting the close connection to natural surroundings, the project also aims to demonstrate that – if things are conceived having time, materials, people and its environment in consideration – they can stand the test of time and remain for the generations to come.
