Young architect Freeja Pak Giusias, which is filled with art in Copenhagen

Faraja and Magnus Pak Giusias were expecting their first child within weeks when they were given the keys to their new home in Frederkesburg, near the Copenhagen Center. The upper floor of a two -storey structure at the end of the nineteenth century that was built as apartments for workers, and appealed to them because of his age and location, hiding behind a large house in the streets. Because Friga, the architect specializing in historical memorization, saw how to throw him in a new light.

“I work with the listed buildings and with it tend to do as much as possible,” she explained. “In our case, we had to do more than restore: we changed the original by lowering the ceiling and one of the walls.” This transformation-which was in just two months-is an open air-to-family creation, with a dual-height living area and a new kitchen that was built to suit the measures of the disputed building.

There is also a wall space for the growing group of spouses of contemporary Danish furniture and art, such as high spaces, adding a new life to the previous modest circles. Join us on a tour and move to the end to look at the construction in progress.
