Entrance hall, wardrobe and kitchen equipment are hidden behind a pinewood wall. On the opposite a second wooden wall of the same material is placed. This wall integrated a bench, fireplace and storage. Floor, ceiling and walls are all white. A custom designed table and bench, together with the fireplace are anthracite gray. The simplicity of the design and choice of materials give this apartment lots of space within the limited area.

About: In
2003 some of the first interior projects; photo agency POE and a fair
stand for Vuurwerk, where nominated for the Dutch Design Awards as
well as the Rotterdam Design Award. In both projects the interior
design was based on custom made furniture objects which defined the
space with their own appearance and function. When secondary school
‘CalandLyceum’ asked them to design the interior of all
public spaces. The result was a custom made interior including all
furniture. The project got awarded as best interior design of the
year in 2005, DDA. This was the beginning of several other public
interior projects, such as the design for schools 02/03 and offices
00/03, next to their work for private clients. |

In 2009 advertising agency Gummo asked to design their new office. Born from a low budget and temporary location briefing, i29 presented the ‘recycled office’. Due to the nature of the project it would be a waste in many ways to make a completely new interior. The outcome was an 'eco friendly design', made from second hand furniture. This same year the interior for public school ‘Panta Rhei’ was finished. i29 proposed a completely black and beige interior with integrated poetry within the architecture. This school and the recycled office where nominated for several national and international awards such as LAI awards and The Great Indoors Awards. Therefore, i29 was also nominated for best interior design office of the year 2009. Early 2010 the studio was awarded with the Bathroom Design Awards for home 06, where a lively plantwall was integrated into the bathroom interior of an Amsterdam residence. Today, i29 | interior architects works on all kind of projects. In collaboration with other architects, for their own clients and spontaneously as experimental activity within the studio. Jaspar Jansen and Jeroen Dellensen work in a very personal, human way. They give life to unexpected ideas, and to the content of their work by having great interest in the people they work with. “We
do not style what is there. What literally try to do is to design
the space; the stuff that is not physically there. And we can only
do this by designing the physical material. It is a different ap-proach
which leads to surprising results. We try to look at it as a composition
in music. As in music the silence is essential to the music itself.
It is the same way with space. We work with structures and rhythms
in an elementary and almost abstract way”. |

jury rapport The Great Indoors Award 2009 / interior design firm of the year: "The fact that this firm has been nominated twice before, in the categories Concentrate & Collaborate and Serve & Facilitate, illustrates the convincing power of the projects of i29 Interior Architects. In the jury’s eyes, this firm shows how capable it is of linking architectonic components with intensive studies of surfaces that gain maximum impact through the use of a colour or typography. This firm represents a method in which architecture and interior architecture come together in a model combination". Jury

Jury
rapport The Great Indoors Award 2009 / Serve&Facilitate: (school
03) After years of disqualification based on typology, suddenly the school seems to be once again the focal point of interest of architects and interior designers. The level of interest has led to an interior architecture that revisits the interface of optimum education and an optimal spatial environment. The jury was deeply impressed by this project by i29 interior Architects and Snelder Architects, in which they see an extraordinarily mature touch that articulates a variety of spaces in a remarkably focused way. But at the same time, the interior manoeuvres used in this project demonstrated a focused specificity in both the unique furniture designs and the service of the school’s educational mission. The jury appreciates the way in which every aspect of the interior design was approached to produce a clear image vocabulary. |
