A shared approach to design-led living
tenitt & The Ori House
Some projects begin with a brief. Others begin with a shared way of thinking.
The residential project developed by tenitt in Charlottenburg, Berlin, belongs to the latter. Conceived as a single furnished apartment, it was designed as more than a place to stay. The intention was to explore how art, design, and everyday living could coexist within one coherent, long-lasting environment, not layered on afterwards, but embedded from the start.
This approach called for partners who shared the same understanding: that interiors are not neutral backdrops, but spaces that shape experience, identity, and connection.
Art as an integral part of the space
From the outset, tenitt partnered with The Ori House to place art at the center of the project. Rather than introducing artworks once the interior was complete, The Ori House approached the apartment as a living canvas, allowing the architecture, natural light, and atmosphere of the space to inform the artistic intervention.
Art by Thomas Delaroziere
Artist Thomas Delaroziere was invited to create and install a new body of work inspired by the landscapes of his home, Martinique. His paintings, rooted in memory and nature, introduce emotional depth without dominating the interior. They function not as decorative elements, but as quiet points of reference, opening the space to light, horizon, and cultural narrative.
Translating vision into a livable interior
With art setting the emotional tone, the apartment required a furnishing concept capable of supporting daily life while maintaining clarity and balance. BoConcept was selected by tenitt to translate this vision into a coherent, functional interior.
Design-led living in practice
Rather than competing with the artwork, the furniture provides structure and grounding. Attention was given to proportion, materiality, and longevity, ensuring that each element supports the overall composition of the space. The result is an interior that feels calm, considered, and adaptable, designed to be lived in. From planning through execution, BoConcept worked closely with the project team to deliver a furnishing solution that aligns with both the practical requirements of a serviced apartment and the broader cultural ambition of the project.
This collaboration between BoConcept, tenitt, and The Ori House reflects a way of working increasingly adopted in residential projects, where art, furnishing, and spatial decisions are developed in parallel rather than in sequence.
In the Charlottenburg apartment, this approach results in a space that is clear in its function and measured in its expression, with each element contributing to the overall balance of the interior. Developed through early alignment between partners, the project demonstrates how a shared intent can support everyday usability while shaping a more coherent and considered living experience.
