Spacon Designs Edition Denmark Showroom and Cafe in Seoul with Vintage Danish Furniture
In 2026, Edition Denmark unveiled a 50-square-metre showroom and café in Seochon, Seoul, crafted by the Copenhagen-based studio Spacon. This design integrates custom-made furniture alongside vintage Danish items, art, and eclectic finds to create a "layered feeling of a home." The café features moss-green stained wood and terracotta tiles, while the showroom boasts a mirrored ceiling. Notable materials include solid cherry wood, woven cord stools, and custom textile lamps. Iconic Danish pieces, such as Børge Mogensen's Folkestolen chair, are prominently displayed. This initiative promotes cultural exchange between Denmark and South Korea and represents the inaugural partnership between Spacon and Edition Denmark, established by Johan S Fuglsbjerg and Ji Eun Lee.
