Biomega is a forward-thinking bike brand headquartered in rural Denmark. The innovative brand takes to the stereotypical [minimalist design inspiration associated with Scandinavia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scandinavian-aesthetics) in its first ever brick and mortar location. The understated retail space is [largely white and features minimal fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retail-environment) and seemingly floating displays in a manner that symbolizes the country's dedication to eco-friendly execution in all realms.

Biomega's first store is a pristine relaxing haven along a particularly high traffic shopping street in the Danish capital.

Founded in 1998 by Jens Martin Skibsted and Elias Grove Nielson, Biomega is a bicycle brand synonymous with design-centric, high-quality products. The chic new Biomega boutique features a [coffee shop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-bottle-coffee-shinsaibashi), a showroom upstairs displaying the brand's latest show bikes and includes a basement workshop space.
