‘Cabinet of Love’, by OEO Studio, Garde Hvalsøe, Bergmann Audio, Gato Audio and Dahlman 1807
In the late 1980s, LP records were almost wiped out by the CD, but in recent years, there has been renewed interest in vinyl, with global sales surging in 2018 for a 13th consecutive year. Thomas Lykke’s modular ‘Cabinet of Love’ for Handmade celebrates the warmer embrace of vinyl, the ritual flip from side to side, and the art form of the album cover with the creation of a ridge on the central lid that allows it to be displayed. For Lykke, the project didn’t just require stellar Danish design, a lust for old-school music rituals and a willingness to get ‘super nerdy.’ It also needed ‘the soul of the craftsman and the soul of the musician’.
Lykke founded Copenhagen-based OEO Studio with Anne-Marie Buemann in 2003. Their collaborators have ranged from small artisanal workshops in Kyoto to industry giants Dinesen, Georg Jensen and Stellar Works. They also worked closely with chef Thomas Frebel on Tokyo’s Inua restaurant, which was shortlisted for Best New Restaurant in this year’s Wallpaper* Design Awards (see W*239).
