秘密の隠れ家

Gabriel Tan curated an intimate exploration of contemplative living through the lens of Japanese furniture brand Ariake and Spanish lighting manufacturer Parachilna. Set within a hidden third-floor apartment at The Conary in Copenhagen, this installation revealed how two geographically distant brands share a unified philosophy of patient collaboration and refined craftsmanship.

The exhibition transformed daily living moments into opportunities for meaningful connection, where Ariake's meditative furniture provided the foundation for human interaction while Parachilna's sculptural lighting reshaped spaces through thoughtful illumination. Enhanced by carefully selected objects from Origin Made, rugs from Sera Helsinki, and sculptures from master washi craftsman Gen Taniguchi, the space became a sanctuary that demonstrated how intentional design can create respite from the outside world while supporting purposeful living.
