Spacon x Holmris B8 The wait is over - We are finally introducing the new furniture system by @spacon.studio and @holmris_b8 ’s Recrafted. Inspired by the classic locker, this is more than just a redesign. Yes, it’s storage – but it also becomes a meeting point, a private space for personal expression, a room divider, and a decorative display. Without fixed desks, the locker is one of the few personal points people return to every day. At the same time, it becomes a natural place to meet, pause, and interact. The idea draws on the classic high school locker – both personal and social – where people leave their mark and naturally gather. Pigeonholes extend this by making it easy to share notes or small items. The system is built as a modular 9-unit structure with different variations, including standing-height counters for informal meetings and lower versions that function as touchdown areas. @spacon.studio @holmris_b8

Locker system design for @holmris_b8 As workspaces shift from fixed desks to flexible and activity based models, traditional points of personal ownership have largely disappeared. The system responds to this condition by reintroducing a sense of individual presence within a shared system. Working with reclaimed materials, the lockers translate waste streams into a coherent modular system. This approach connects questions of resource use with spatial experience, positioning the locker as both a functional element and part of a broader material cycle.

Spacon x Holmris B8 @spacon.studio and @holmris_b8 ’s Recrafted have joined forces to create a new furniture system, rethinking the idea of a personal base within a social space. The collaboration builds on previous projects, including interiors for Hart Bakery, POPL, and the Michelin-starred restaurant AOC. Copenhagen-based design studio Spacon has a strong understanding of heritage and slow design, expressed through a bold, contemporary edge. Rather than working within a fixed aesthetic, the studio approaches design as a holistic experience, shaped by how people move, feel, and interact with space. Holmris B8’s Recrafted is a collection of upcycled and recycled furniture. With a curious and exploratory approach, Recrafted extends the life of used pieces while investigating how to renew the form and function of leftover materials from post-consumer and industrial waste. Together, we have shaped spaces that support how people connect and interact. Now, we bring that perspective into a furniture system – a private, stable presence for the individual, while collectively forming an informal meeting point. It can’t be revealed just yet… You’ll have to wait for Trends & Traditions, May 7.

Rather than designing an exhibition, the project explores how small scale interventions can extend an institution into the public realm and welcome the creative cultural exchange and conversations.   Client: The Royal Danish Collection / Den Kongelige Samling @rosenborgslot Spatial team: @malene_hvidt @otto.engelhardt Handcrafted By: @gilbert___gilbert Photography By: @david_stjernholm

At its center sits an eight sided table that shifts between display, seating, and gathering. Crafted in solid cherry wood in close collaboration with @gilbert___gilbert , it reflects a shared focus on material precision and traditional craft.

@spacon.studio designed the interior of The Royal Danish Collection’s pavilion in The King’s Garden, that acts as a meeting point between the institution and the city. Positioned along one of the main paths leading to Rosenborg Castle, the structure introduces the collection at eye level, inviting visitors to engage before entering the museum itself.

For @beitkotn , the spatial identity grew out of how homes in Cairo take shape over time, guided by a culture of hospitality. The creative residence and cultural guesthouse now offers a setting for gathering, connection, and exchange. Photos: @fh_otography

For the Egyptian fashion brand @kotn , we designed @beitkotn , a cultural guest house and creative residence in London. Inspired by Cairo’s layered homes and Middle Eastern hospitality, the space feels intimate, romantic, contemporary, and nostalgic. Photos: @fh_otography

@beitkotn was inspired by Cairo—not as a collage of styles, but as a living, breathing city. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, downtown salons weren’t just heritage landmarks - they were part of everyday urban life. Their cosmopolitan style - Mamluk and Ottoman arches, European layouts, carved wood, chandeliers, palms, carpets - moved into homes, shaping our grandparents’ idea of a “cultured” interior: craft-driven, obsessively collected, and always real. These homes were never neutral. Deep, layered hues created shade, warmth, privacy, and mood. Color wasn’t decoration. It shaped how spaces felt, held memory, and carried daily rituals. Cairo has always mixed old and new. Vintage furniture, patterned floors, carved wood, and heavy textures sit naturally beside modern pieces. At Beit Kotn, this slightly formal, romantic, layered interior still holds the energy of today’s creative generation - messy, experimental, alive. Beit Kotn is a working home shaped by Cairo’s urban culture: full of memory, open to collaboration, and alive with creativity. 🎥: @jonas.kisielius @simonwasiolek 🎨: @fakn__
