When traditional building methods and modern functionality meet, something truly special happens. That is exactly the case with the Four-Winged Farmhouse project outside Odense, designed by the architectural firm Verna, where tradition and innovation go hand in hand – not least in the choice of ceiling solution.
As a supplier to the project, Hz Acoustic contributed with an acoustic solution that supports the house’s aesthetic and functional ambitions. Using Hz Plus 027+ gypsum acoustic panels, finished with our Hz Acoustic Plaster 03, a smooth and seamless acoustic ceiling has been created that integrates elegantly into the bright, whitewashed rooms.
The four-winged farmhouse is a newly built residence inspired by traditional Danish farmsteads, characterized by a closed structure and four wings surrounding a central courtyard. With great precision and respect for the region’s building traditions, Verna has created a home where everything from materials to proportions draws on a vernacular expression – but interpreted in a contemporary and refined way.
The home’s central kitchen and living area form the heart of the house. Here, open spaces, large windows, and carefully selected materials come together – and the ceiling plays a key role in tying it all into a cohesive whole. Even if it’s not the first thing one notices, the ceiling’s quality and surface make a decisive difference to the room’s overall atmosphere.
For this project, the choice fell on Hz Plus 027+, a perforated gypsum acoustic panel pre-treated with acoustic felt. The panels ensure both effective sound absorption and an aesthetic expression that aligns with the architect’s vision of clean surfaces and discreet detailing. The final finish with Hz Acoustic Plaster 03 completes the look, resulting in a white, smooth acoustic ceiling that doesn’t draw attention but significantly contributes to the room’s acoustic comfort.
A distinctive feature of this project is the use of edge trims, which create sharp endings and a sense of visual lightness. The ceiling seems almost to float above the rooms, underlining the house’s simple and precise architectural style.
Integrated curtain rails are also seamlessly incorporated into the ceiling, adding another elegant detail that demonstrates how function and aesthetics unite perfectly.
Verna is known for its deep understanding of place, tradition, and materiality, and it has been a pleasure for us to deliver a ceiling solution that technically and aesthetically matches the ambitions of the project.
Gypsum acoustic panels are often associated with standard solutions, but the four-winged farmhouse shows how, with the right products and skilled craftsmanship, it is possible to achieve a result that is both discreet, functional, and architecturally strong.
At Hz Acoustic, we are proud to be part of this project, where both form and function have been considered all the way through – from gate to acoustic plaster.
