Woods creates flexible office solutions where various companies can choose the option that suits their unique needs. Located in Copenhagen at DRbyen metro, we collaborated to achieve their goal of creating a modern, sustainable and inclusive space called Augusthus, a space that would fit all of their client’s needs.

We were there from the start on the empty building lot and had a hand in the process throughout. We placed great emphasis on optimal indoor climate with adapted daylight, room temperature, high-quality acoustic solutions and made sure to create different zones for different needs. The project resulted in a bright and open, homely space, that we are very proud of. Augusthus got shortlisted by Nohrcon as the best office building of the year 2021.
So, don’t be surprised if you find the MAKWäRK team in Augusthus’ cantine, enjoying a veggie meal along with the great atmosphere.

Seaborg is a scale-up company, working with advanced and innovative nuclear reactor technology in order to provide sustainable energy. Located in Copenhagen and attracting talents from around the globe, the employees wanted a playful, modern atmosphere where they felt free to both think new thoughts and socialise. The project was developed in cooperation with the employees and resulted in a workplace showcasing Seaborgs essence: incorporating rocks, nerdy equipment and nerfguns, along soft lounges, social eating areas and a place to be with your kid -all surrounded by green plants of course.

Vallø Mejeri, is a former dairy factory that stood in disuse from 1989 until MAKWäRK discovered it in 2019. Yes, this is where the founders of MAKWäRK, Britt and Mikkel, live!

Located in Køge, Denmark, the rustic redbrick building from 1949, offers tall windows, even taller ceilings and lots of interesting architectural features. During renovations, the team were careful to conserve the industrial details, such as the original white wall tiles and the holes in the ceiling once used for milk silos, creating a unique home. The space is designed to be inviting to both the couple’s dogs, friends and family, and is an eclectic mix of the rustic, crooked and decadent.

Vallø Mejeri has been featured in Bo Bedre and have also had the pleasure to form backdrop for a few photoshoots too. Feel free to check out Vallø Mejeri instagram page or read Bo Bedre’s article by clicking the link below.

Opendo is a Danish leasing company, that offer operational and financial leasing of vehicles with a strong focus on sustainability.
The company situates in Axel Towers, a new, stunning architectural structure, consisting of five round towers, that soars from 5-15 floors, in central Copenhagen -and this is where MAKWäRK enter the story.

MAKWäRK was invited to design the interior for Opendo before the company moved in. Opendo wanted a contemporary office space, that supported both hybrid seating and a clean desk policy. With this in mind, and a continuous dialog with their HR department, we created effective workstations, green lounges and a spacial planning devided by sculptural lockers, that not only incorporated the needs of a modern hybrid workspace, but also complemented the rounded spaces. The result was modern, clean and comfortable office spaces, fitting for Opendo.

The clean desk policy makes the workplace more mobile, in the sense that the employees can choose where to sit, according to what they have to work on that day and with whom. We chose simple, effective workstations in combination with bags for personal equipment and lockers.

Akademikernes A-kasse is a Danish unemployment insurance fund, that work as a sparring partner and financial safety net throughout academic’s working life. MAKWäRK designed their Start-up department in Copenhagen back in 2018, and as it was a success, we were invited to design their department in Aalborg as well.

AKK Aalborg wanted a space that matched the department in Copenhagen, that could nurture an incubator environment for their academic members. This included designing both places for groups to work together, small informal meeting areas and more formal work stations. We started the work in December 2021 and opened the department five months later.

As of March 2022 we are now working on the regular office spaces for Akademikernes A-kasses employees at the head office in Copenhagen.

Full concept and project for client by Makwärk. In 2019 we completed a full renovation & Interior concept for Ri in Taastrup. The building was a sad (the client thought so too) example of early 90´ architecture with truly depressing system walls, a rounded hallway that seemed to go on for ever and the most horrible flooring and break room we have ever seen.

With a solid base from interviews with every single one of the 50 employees - we ensured a thorough and DNA based design and interior with every person in mind. The inspiration for the project was simple: an updated sophisticated yet humble lounge/ NY-loft vibe that would allow clients as well as employees to feel at home as well as inspired by bold colors and furniture.

With small but powerfull changes like smoked oak window seats, dark walls in various but complimenting colors we created a space you want to experience - you want to see whats hiding round the next corner. The hallway was dark and gloomy - the  New York style doors and walls now create light and every nook and corner is now in use - for small meeting rooms, lounge areas and some of the 100 year old company´s artefacts.

Makwärk designed everything - from the the carpet that is a distorted version of a cover from one of the clients book in the basement - with handwritten financial statements from 1960´ to the wall hung shelving system in bamboo.

We spent a good year on this job, The Office Club at the centre of Copenhagen is placed in the amazing listed building Brönnums Hus. Build in 1860, the house is one of a kind with round walls, oval rooms and walls that housed and entertained people like Hans Christian Andersen. With the owner of the building we created the concept Brönnums Hus Office Club - a high end Office Hotel. Our design leaves room to relax and reflect and connect, and is a showcase of our endless need to combine old with new. In this specific case we worked with a lot of young Danish Designers - combining New Nordic and Art Deco. Not a single wall colour is used twice and theme changes from one floor to the next. Brönnums Hus Office Club opened the doors nov. 1. 2015 after a total renovation & interior process of 1,5 years. A humbling, amazing experience.

This amazing establishment by Akademikernes A-kasse is located at the centre of Copenhagen.

Combining and connecting the professional workspaces and meeting rooms with lounge areas and with warm, dimmed functional materials and colour transform the members    everyday into a relaxing place to work with opportunity for social networking, events and workshops. It has been our mission to design a space where entrepreneurs can live out their dreams and visions in inspiring surrounds.

Making a NY loft feeling in an ordinary office building in the middle of Copenhagen gave the word "interior design" a whole new meaning. Word is - its working..

Making you feel at home in your office was quite a challenging task, however 5teSted has become one of the most attractive coworking spaces in Denmark.

Located centrally at Gothergade 11A, MAKWäRK has created a space that not only offers different office options but also supports social interaction among 5te Sted’s tenants with an open roof terrace, a central dinning room with a beloved shared coffee machine and clever interior arrangements that brings people together. This is both a professional and cosy space, helped along with its mix of new and recycled furniture that support the different happenings, like networking events or parties, while also giving room for the tenants to bring their customers, kid or dog to work.

No better place for MAKWäRK to be either, so on most days, you’ll find us in our office at the 3rd floor -if not on the roof terrace.
