WHERE CHAOS MEETS COZY
LOCALS CALL IT SLOTTET (”THE CASTLE”) AND EVEN TAXI DRIVERS KNOW THE WAY. SUMMER PARTIES? EPIC. HANGOVER MORNINGS? HYGGE WITH DUVETS. THE RESIDENTS? A FAMILY OF ALL AGES, NATIONS, AND GENDERS.

ABOUT
THE GOAL WAS TO CAPTURE THE VIVID SPIRIT OF THE HOUSE AND ITS RESIDENTS. AS CHAOTIC & WILD, YET COZY & INTIMATE AS IT CAN BE. EVERY ROOM TELLS ITS OWN LITTLE STORY AND ADDS TO THE ESSENTIAL CHARM OF SLOTTET.
WITH THE DOLLHOUSE CONCEPT, INSPIRED BY ALLAN DEAS, IT WAS POSSIBLE TO SPLIT IT INTO 9 SQUARED INSTAGRAM POSTS.

ARTIST STATEMENT
The message lies in WAMDUE PROJECT’S song "King of my Castle". each room shows an example of self-realization and self-determination.
MUST BE THE REASON WHY THEY’RE KINGS OF THEIR CASTLE.

AND THE PUN, OF CAUSE.

THE CASTLE
BUILT IN 1908 IN A DANISH SMALL TOWN, AND HOME TO THE CITY'S LONGEST LASTING COMMUNE.
THE ICONIC SHOE TREE DIDN’T MAKE IT ON THE ILLUSTRATION. INSTEAD, THERE ARE SOME SHOES DANGLING FROM THE CHIMNEY.

THE ENTHUSIASTIC GOURMET
WHETHER YOU’RE HUNGRY FOR FOOD OR JUST IN NEED OF A GOOD TALK: HE’S GOT YOU COVERED. GOOD VIBES INCLUDED. NO WONDER, YOU NEVER SEE HIM ALONE.

THE METALHEAD AND THE CHICKEN
THE METALHEAD REPRESENTS SLOTTET'S CONNECTION TO THE BAR VAN HATTEN.
THE DANISH FLAGS, CALLED "DANNEBROG",  AREN’T IN ANY WAY PATRIOTIC. IT’S TYPICAL IN DENMARK TO USE IT AS A SYMBOL OF CELEBRATION AND JOY. YOU CAN FIND IT ON BIRTHDAY CAKES, GREETING CARDS AND EVEN GIFT WRAPPINGS.

THE CHICKENS ARE USUALLY OUTSIDE.

PARTY LIKE THE VIKINGS
THEY SURE KNOW HOW TO THROW A PARTY. AND SOMETIMES OTHER THINGS GET THROWN OVER IN THE PROCESS, TOO. VIKING STYLE.

IN CASE YOU’RE WONDERING WHY THERE’S SO MANY LAMPS IN ONE ROOM: I DO AS WELL.

THE AMERICAN ROAD WARRIOR THAT GOT STUCK FOR AN ETERNITY
WELL, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT WHEN YOU STEP INTO A HUMONGOUS ANCIENT BUILDING? ONCE YOU THINK YOU’RE DONE, YOU CAN GO BACK TO WHERE YOU STARTED.

THE PUNK ROCKER
HE SPECIFICALLY ASKED ME FOR A FUNNY NOSE, BECAUSE HE HAD HIS BROKEN ONCE. A TRUE PUNK.

THE GAMER THAT USED TO BE A ROCK STAR
HE LIVES IN THE DARK, HE LIVES OF OFF ENERGY DRINKS, AND HE’S TRADITIONALLY BEHIND WITH CHORES. TEXT BOOK DEFINITION OF A GAMER.

THE FAT CAT IN THE ATTIC
THE ATTICS OF OLD HOUSES. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU’LL FIND.
EXCEPT FOR ALFRED, HE’S ALMOST ALWAYS THERE.

THE SENSEI
THE HOUSE’S PEACE OF CALM, PERFECTLY BALANCED IN MIND AND BODY.

THE WALRUS AND THE TINY CAT
TECHNICALLY AN ALIEN IN THIS COUNTRY. THUS THE UFO.
