Edit
Who do you live with?
I live with my boyfriend Jeppe, who is an IT engineer and sound nerd!

How old is your apartment and where is it located?
We live in a beautiful old apartment dating back to 1902 in the old Østerbro district of Copenhagen, near to nature and the water.
Can you tell us a little more about the layout?
It's 95 square metres (1022 square feet) and divided into six rooms: a kitchen, dining room, living room, office, bedroom and small bathroom. The apartment has high classical panels, stucco and rosettes, herringbone wood floors and three metre high ceilings.
It's Jeppe's grandparent's old apartment which Jeppe has renovated so the old decor and smell of smoke has gone - but the original details are still intact!
I love the energetic feel of your apartment - can you describe your approach to the interior?
The style of our home is really mixed. I blend colours, warm materials and crazy travel treasures with Nordic design, heirlooms, flea market curiosities, gold from the trash, classic furniture, modern design and budget-friendly items.
Portrait of Hanne Wilhelm Hansen by Vilhelm Lundstrøm, Cat by Any Warhol, Hay masks, the wall is painted in colour code NCS S 6020-B.
As a collector, how do you make sure the space doesn't become cluttered?
I have gathered items for many years, and occasionally I have to sell stuff so that Jeppe doesn't get tired of me!
Luna made the art above the bed herself using circular mirrors and blue and purple paint to create a "space / heaven / sky kind of feeling."
I find inspiration in shapes, colours and materials as well as moods, people, crooked details, art and poetry. It's not important whether or not it all fits together. For me, it's important that my home inspires me, feels cosy, tells stories and hold memories.
