Precision,

softened by nature.

Residence 04 is the renovation of a top-floor apartment in central Oslo, home to a collector of Scandinavian design.

We removed partitions to create one continuous space, organised around a single sculptural volume of oak joinery.

Every junction, shadow gap, and reveal was drawn with care, so the apartment feels effortless despite its precision.

A single oak volume organises kitchen, storage, and stair.

One volume,

many rooms.

A central oak volume holds the kitchen, storage, and stair, freeing the perimeter for light and views.

Stone, oak, and plaster are used with restraint, giving the owner’s collection of furniture and art room to breathe.

Few materials,

used well.

A limited palette allowed us to focus on detail — the meeting of timber and stone, the softness of plaster, the precision of steel.

“Every time I come home I notice something new — a shadow, a joint, a texture. It is a quiet kind of luxury.”

— Henrik Aas, Homeowner
