Standard Practice is a Copenhagen based design studio working with crafted architecture - combining clarity, care, and material depth.
We work across architecture, interiors, public space and furniture.
We design spaces with clarity and character; bringing architecture, interiors and bespoke elements into one coherent whole. This approach is rooted in craft, how things are built and how they will stand the test of time.
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.
