Gasværk theatre, Copenhagen, Denmark Interior: Ramsing & Co Photos: Louise Stickland – courtesy of Kinesys; Wilkhahn
The former gas tank, which had been planned by architect Martin Nyrop in 1883, has been used as a theater since the 1970s. In order to update the impressive theater’s 40-year-old light, sound and stage equipment, a brand-new dome made of curved roof trusses was placed in the room on 16 columns, from which all the theater equipment is suspended.
The black cover of the seat and backrest frame doesn’t reflect light or sound. It indicates which chairs are unoccupied and makes them very comfortable, even during long shows.
