Domestic Science With Julie Carlson
Hung-Ming Chen and Chen-Yen Wei, founders of the Stockholm design studio Afteroom AB, are out to reinvent the wheel, or at least something like it. Their Q hook is a new twist on the S hook, longstanding storage staple of kitchen and closet, but not without its faults. "When you grab stuff from an S hook, the hook is often dislodged in the process," they point out. "With the addition of a loop, the S hook becomes a more stable storage solution."

Architecture & Interiors With Julie Carlson
Beyond Baltic birch: The home and studio/showroom of Frama director Niels Stroyer Christophersen merges artful decay with modernity. Christophersen describes his mission this way: "I want to create a dialog between two opposite poles, the classical and the contemporary." Working with a group of artists and designers, Frama produces a line of lighting and goods for the home and designs edgy commercial and residential spaces.
The Frama studio, located in the historic Nyboder neighborhood, occupies a pharmacy dating back to the 1800s, original woodwork and architectural elements included. Christophersen's living quarters, a suite of rooms located off the studio, feature distressed walls and a selection of pieces from the studio's line of furniture and lighting.
Photographs via Frama unless otherwise noted.
Above: The entryway to Christophersen's apartment is painted in St. Paul's Blue, a shade he developed for Danish paint company Jotun (as Em of Em's Design Blogg says, "Somehow it manages to be calm and dramatic at the same time; it looks like the sky when thunder rolls in"). Frama's 90 Degrees Floor Lamp provides illumination.
