LA BANCHINA
A small seasonal restaurant in an old customs house on the Refshaleøen waterfront. The pace is set by the seasons, the produce, and the water just outside.
La Banchina sits at the edge of Refshaleøen, in a former customs building looking out over the harbour. It's small and intimate, led by Christer, and simple on purpose: Danish, unsprayed ingredients, carefully sourced and handled with respect. The menu changes constantly. The coffee is strong, the wine leans south, and the sea is always within reach – cold against the warmth of the sauna.

Our work here has grown slowly. It started with quiet refinements to the existing logo and carried on through website upkeep and a run of small, tactile pieces.

Merch is a big part of it: towels, T-shirts, sun hats, tote bags, baby bodysuits, thermos bottles – all made with the same care for material and use. Objects made to be worn, used, and carried back down to the water.

It carries on in small steps – lately some printed pieces – and probably will for a while yet.
