LK Residence Copenhagen, Denmark

Danielle Siggerud

WORDS | Sophie Lewis

Facing a corner of Frederiksberg Garden, Copenhagen, architect Danielle Siggerud set out to establish a relationship between the LK Residence and the verdant outlook. “Our idea was to be grounded at kitchen level when looking outside, so we placed the kitchen a half-level below the dining area to create an even stronger relationship with the outdoor space,” Danielle says. Designed to feel like part of the furniture with all appliances concealed, the kitchen island functions as a worktop on one side and an informal bench setting on the other. Every element has been meticulously thought-through, down to the bronze backplate on the top of each drawer.
