Other Projects by Guise
Fotografiska Museum
Guise conceptual starting point for the Fotografi ska project was the specific aesthetics of photography. Technical limitations within photography have created a unique visual language, weather being playful deformations of perspectives using wide-angle lenses or blurry unfocused images. The specifi c themes named above derive from technical limitations, but has over time taken place as a stylistic approach.For the Fotografi ska Museum the photo related aesthetics was a conceptual starting point, which endedup in two distinct themes of cutting planes and refl ections. These themes have been spread out over themuseum, starting in the entrance level museum shop, ending in the top fl oor restaurant and bar. The reflections are a result of all the vertical surfaces of the furniture being made of polished steel. All corners have been welded and polished creating a seamless steel shape. The steel surfaces have been treated to create different effects of reflections; most of them are polished to become highly refl ective, some has been mechanically processed to create a gradient in reflectiveness.The geometry of the furniture derives from the object to be presented to the visitors; a slightly tilted book has given shape to the book module and a wide open portfolio has given form to the portfolio module. The result of is a family of sculptural, yet functional, objects that aims to give Fotografi ska a distinctive visual identity. The material palette is simple; the materials being used are mainly solid surface materials and a rangeof steel which has been mechanically processed to enable a difference in refl ections. The manual labour behind the treatment of the steel surfaces is very time consuming, but necessary in order to fulfi ll the very high demand of the end result.
