With the development of open plan interior architecture on the increase, there is a growing need to define space. And what better way than through the partitions designed by Copenhagen based ÖRNDUVALD studio, aka Pétur Örn Eyjólfsson and Søren Oskar Duvald, architects from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. TitledPartition, the project deals with temporary spatial changes, where two different dividers, the Frame and theColumns, act as the foundation to the modern day room separator. The design of the two dividers focuses on texture and surface, as well as functionality and physical and visual relations. The project has been traditionally crafted with time-honored furniture crafting techniques which after all, is what its design is all about; and that is where the experimentation lies - in making an architectural element look like a furniture piece.
