atelier axo

atelier axo is a crossdisciplinary design- and architecture practice based in Copenhagen. This website shows a nonlinear assembly of imaginary as well as realised projects from the atelier’s archive.

atelier axo was founded in 2019 by designer Rose Hermansen and architect Caroline Sillesen, both with Masters Degrees from The Royal Danish Academy.

The atelier specialises in small scale architecture, interior design alongside objects and furniture. Projects span from fine art galleries including gallery shops to high end retail boutiques, restaurants and office planning as well as private clients with housing projects. When designing a project the atelier aims to design site specific solutions and furniture as much as possible, emphasizing what already takes place at the site.

atelier axo also designs furniture and objects aside from the architectural projects. The designs can be purchased through the atelier. If interested, please write an e-mail to info@atelier-axo.com.
