Frame Arkitektur: Creating the framework for a good quality of life
By Hanna Margrethe Enger
Our surroundings have a big impact on our well-being. Frame Arkitektur knows this well, which is why the architecture firm’s aim is to create homes and workplaces that not only work well, but make people feel good.
A relative newcomer, Frame Arkitektur was established in 2020 by experienced architects and interior designers. It was born out of a desire to offer clients broad professional expertise and the option to work with one team during the entire process, from designing the building and its interior to completion.
No project is too big or too small. Frame has designed and decorated large offices, private properties and a yoga studio. It has several exciting projects under development, two of them in Drammen city centre. One is the development of an existing property into new homes and the other is developing 21 apartments as well as renovating a listed building.
Working with everything from housing developments, commercial projects, and private holiday homes, Frame has a team that is ready to take on any challenge. “Every project is different, that’s what makes it so exciting,” says Camilla Christensen, managing director. “Offices and homes have similarities but also different needs, but in the end, quite a lot is the same.”
Knowing what is similar and understanding different needs is how the company went from working on projects all over Norway, to adding projects in Spain to the list. Frame has completed several renovations on projects in the high-end segment in Marbella, such as apartments in the well-known Puente Romano to family villas in Nueva Andalucía.
Architectural style and the client’s wishes
Architecture and interior design are creative professions. Whilst architecture is also quite technical, it may surprise some to learn that so is interior design. It is not just about making a space look beautiful, but also making it function well. Something that, when done well, is rarely noticed.
Interior designers and architects have a certain style to their projects, which is often what attracts clients to them. “Everyone has their own style and common thread in their projects,” Christensen says. “We have a certain style in what we do, but it’s what the client wants that’s important. This is why clients are encouraged to actively participate in the process. The better the architect and interior designer get to know the client, the better the end result.”
