We talk to Tableau Copenhagen founder Julius Værnes Iversen on the studio’s evolution from flower shop to fully-fledged design operation and its collaboration with artists, designers and design...
. The ceiling and walls are stripped back to reveal weathered concrete, podiums are made from architectural materials such as terrazzo, glass bricks and perforated metal, and there’s a vinyl floor underfoot, in an electric, almost Yves Klein blue that has become Tableau’s signature.
The floral arrangements are equally eccentric: soon after its establishment, the studio found viral success with a series of monumental gypsophila clouds; other installations have featured bundles of exotic blooms interspersed with humbler varieties such as reindeer moss and asparagus fern, often in bright block colours, and arranged on scaffolding. Bouquets are an exuberant juxtaposition of natural and dyed flowers.
‘I love scaffolding, because it’s an unselfish structure that exists to maintain the beauty of something else.’Considering Tableau’s innovative spirit, it may come as a surprise that Iversen’s background in flowers is as traditional as it gets. He joined his family’s more conventional chain of flower shops, Blomster Bjarne, two decades ago, at the age of 12. He later became its accountant, before taking over the reins alongside his brother Magnus in 2015, following the death of their father.
The opening of the store presented the opportunity to launch a series of product collaborations, bringing together floral inspiration and an alluringly industrial aesthetic. First came a team-up with local interiors brand Ikon for a series of rectilinear vessels made from square ceramic tiles, with a removable water container to ensure functionality.
