For architects and design enthusiasts, the spaces where culture comes alive are as important as the art itself - the interplay of materials, light, and functionality.
Great Culture, Best Experienced on a Fine Floor
For architects and design enthusiasts, the spaces where culture comes alive are as important as the art itself. The interplay of materials, light, and functionality creates environments that elevate the experience of those who enter. At Hørning, we’re proud to have our floors play a role in some of Denmark’s most iconic cultural institutions - spaces where architecture and artistry meet to inspire.
Here are a few of our favourites:
Musikhuset Aarhus
The Concert Hall in Aarhus is a prominent cultural landmark, known for its impressive architecture and vibrant arts scene. Completed in 1982, this expansive concert hall complex features Hørning floors, enhancing the elegance and acoustics of its renowned performance spaces.
Den Gamle By, Aarhus
Step back in time at Denmark’s open-air museum, Den Gamle By. The carefully preserved interiors and historical reconstructions are enhanced by the authenticity and durability of our floors, supporting the weight of history while remaining an essential part of the experience.
ARoS Aarhus Art Museum
Home to Olafur Eliasson’s iconic Your Rainbow Panorama, ARoS is a beacon of contemporary art. Beneath the vibrant colours and striking installations, Hørning floors provide a foundation that complements the museum’s innovative architecture.
Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen
Art meets elegance at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, where the refined interiors showcase exquisite sculptures and artefacts. Our floors contribute to the warm, welcoming atmosphere that invites visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of history.
Skuespilhuset and Operaen, Copenhagen
Copenhagen’s theatrical gems, the Royal Danish Playhouse (Skuespilhuset) and the Opera House (Operaen), are masterpieces of modern architecture. With Hørning floors underfoot, performers and audiences alike experience a perfect marriage of function and form.
DR Koncerthuset, Copenhagen
Designed by Jean Nouvel, the DR Concert Hall is an acoustic and architectural marvel. Here, our floors add a natural warmth to the bold, modern design, making every musical note resonate in a space of unparalleled harmony.
Each of these cultural landmarks showcases the transformative power of great architecture. At Hørning, we’re honoured to contribute to these spaces, demonstrating that a well-crafted floor is more than a surface - it’s a vital part of the story, connecting people, places, and experiences.
