Café Ferdinand
The project aims to transform the café at the Willumsens Museum, adding value and a site specific collection of furniture. As part of a larger renovation plan starting next year, the project seeks to create an immersive and captivating experience within the café that has a resonance with the artworks of J. F. Willumsen.
The project proposes a concrete proposal for the transformation of the café at the Willumsens Museum, along with site-specific furniture to complement it. The aim of the proposal is to create resonance between the café's interior and Willumsen's artistic world. The art experience should not end when the visitor leaves the exhibition hall. Instead, it should continue into the café, enriching and tying together the overall museum experience. The project offers a visual and conceptual expression for the café and bespoken furniture that references the art on the walls in a subtle manner. It also includes references to the stools in the exhibition halls that I designed last semester, establishing a common familiar language between them.
The project focuses on materials and colors to transform the café at the Willumsens Museum. It introduces a specialized furniture collection consisting of a stool, a bench, and a café table. These carefully designed pieces enhance the café's ambiance, providing both functionality and aesthetic appeal to the space.
