Standard Practice is a Copenhagen-based architecture and design studio. We practice ‘crafted architecture’; defined by clarity, care and material depth, across buildings, interiors, public space and furniture.
Our services are tailored to the scale of the project, from early feasibility through to handover, with the option to include bespoke furniture and built-in elements as part of a complete, coherent outcome.
