"Shedding the now well-hackneyed hygge trope, Hotel Hans claims to be anything (everything) but a "home away from home," banking on the expectation that some - if not a lot - of visitors would like to experience something more elevated than their own familiar domestic spaces. With all of the layers of textured marble, one might feel as though they've been transported to Milan, that other key design destination."
"Replacing the expected light-toned woods and white-washed walls - an aesthetic that might too closely resemble the gray skies of the long cold winters here - concrete walls interplay with sleek stone, green and black accents. And yet site-responsive references do crop up in a more sparing distribution of wooden details. The verdant tones evoke the lushness of Frederiksburg's tree-lined streets."
Copenhagen functions as a compact design capital with progressive policy and influential events. Hotel Hans sits between Nørrebro and Frederiksburg as a 91-key boutique poised to disrupt the hospitality scene. The hotel rejects the hygge trope and positions itself as an elevated experience rather than a home away from home. Layers of textured marble and material choices can evoke Milan. Expected light-toned woods and white-washed walls are replaced by concrete walls, sleek stone, and green and black accents, with sparing wooden details. Verdant tones reference Frederiksburg’s tree-lined streets. Public spaces, including a lobby bar, the Mediterranean-inspired BOLO restaurant, and a courtyard, present theatrical contrasts. Guest rooms continue the dark-gray and deep-green palette.
