The spacious brick villa is situated in Copenhagen, right on the shores of the Baltic Sea. It was planned and built in around 1900 - with typically Scandinavian simplicity and clean lines.

The situation before the new plans:

A complete conversion was planned. The kitchen was to be accommodated in an extension off to the side, measuring around 8 m long and 3 m wide. One part of the kitchen area has a spacious passageway into the adjoining dining room. The other part of the kitchen is concealed by a wall. The idea was to accommodate the elements associated with cooking, i.e. the hob, sink and appliances, etc., in the concealed area and only have a wall-hanging sideboard visible in the area that can be seen from the dining room.

The plan was to have a long, handle-free kitchen line with a very graphic front design. This area is visible from the high dining room, which is crowned by a stucco ceiling. In the foreground is a bulthaup c3 table made from Swiss pear.

The large appliances are accommodated in a block of tall units with a gray aluminum front surface. The wall has a room-height multi-functional wall which supports the glass panels, the "floating" kitchen line and the tall units.

A spacious shelf provides lightness in the zone above the line. The long wall line itself is made from Swiss pear, while the worktop is made from stainless steel. On the opposite wall: a kitchen block containing two hobs and a teppan yaki, together with a 90-cm-wide oven. The cooking area is made complete with two large, overhead triangular extractor hoods.

The cooking area rests on bow feet. The fronts are in aluminum gray, the worktop in stainless steel and the ceiling-height panel wall is made from glass. Visible to the right in the background: a preparation element from bulthaup's system 20. It also functions as an additional work surface and serving element.
