The Sculptor?s Residence Recreates a Home Fit for an Artist
The Sculptor's Residence, a private atelier in the center of Stockholm, was used as a stage to create an artistic haven.
What would it be like to live in an artistic haven in Stockholm, Sweden, surrounded by objects of craftsmanship, creativity, and comfort"
The Sculptor’s Residence, a private atelier in the center of Stockholm, was used as a stage for Norm Architects to carry out this exercise in creative imagination during Stockholm Design Week 2020. In four separate rooms, Norm Architects carefully placed designs from a swathe of studios to recreate a residence fit for an artist.
The apartment was a theatrical showcase in how designs from Menu and DUX, sculptural objects by British-born, Denmark-based maker Nicholas Shurey, ceramics by Sofia Tufvasson and Atelier Armand, as well as limestone and marble podiums by Östersjösten, and dolomite plaster plinths by St. Leo, can create the perfect artistic abode. The almost theatrical staging of objects pays homage to the ateliers of great artists ? from Picasso?s Parisian hideout to Cezanne?s untouched studio in Aix-en-Provence ? and allows visitors a glimpse into the artistic process ? on a larger scale. It?s a staged fantasy of sorts; pairing different creative partners to create one creative whole. Furthermore, the Sculptor?s Residence brings the city into play ? beyond the four walls of the design fair.
