I was watching New Amsterdam on Netflix last night (I know, probably not very design cool, but it's an easy watch after a long day!) while intermittently browsing through instagram (Per hates it when I do that!), and I stumbled across the Danish account of Stina Bothilde. From what I can gather, Stina and her family divide their time between a beautiful old apartment in Fredriksberg, Copenhagen and a weekend retreat in Hønsinge, West of Zealand. They both caught my eye for different reasons, and I'm pretty sure I'll feature her cabin at some point. But today, I couldn't resist giving you a small tour of their city space. I say small tour since Stina hasn't shot that many angles thus far. Even so, these lovely rooms / angles are filled with lovely 'effortless Danish' inspiration.
In the dining area, a pair of Opaline Hubsch lamps hang over the table, the cables draped from the original electrical source. A long brown cushion (made with curtain fabric) helps transform cabinets (from Handcrafted Interior) into seating while adding a touch of on-trend colour while classic wishbone chairs are arranged opposite.
A galaxy globe mobile by Kaja Skytte hangs in the corner, while a basket of blankets lies in wait by the balcony door.
In the sitting room, original art from Isola Studio* (check to the pieces here*!) and a print Arthus hangs on a wall painted in Space by Jotun Lady. The rug is from Søstrene Grene.
I love the wood on the casing of the bathroom cabinet - combined with the brass holder - it really makes the space!
Well folks, I might not have been able to show you the entire home, but I have a feeling this is a start of something beautiful!
Check out Stina's instagram feed for the latest updates.
And if you're into all things danish after seeing this - go ahead and pull up a wishbone chair and scroll through this danish home tour archive. It's a favourite of mine!
By the way, I've been really enjoying the comments lately, especially when a discussion arises, they are so fun to read and remind me of what a great community My Scandinavian Home is! Thank you.
Ha det fint!

Hey you have a photo with an unfinished photoshop editing of the living room ;)
ReplyDeleteI wonder how that happened? So strange! Now corrected! Thank you :)
DeleteNice posters on the Arthus's website, thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteI got stuck in there too - so many good ones!
DeleteI love that show, too, no shame in it at all! :D Love all of your posts, such nice inspiration for uncluttered and well designed living. In this space, I love the original moldings, french doors, beautiful old transom windows over the door to the deck, in contrast with some newer and higher end as well as ikea pieces. It all goes, somehow, and results in a very nice energy. It's how I've always lived, happily - eclectic and collected - and I love seeing others' homes that do it so nicely.
ReplyDeleteLove that you like New Amsterdam too! It's so easy to watch, my husband and I area walks like 'Another one'?... 'Go on then'!
DeleteI'm so happy you like the spaces I share :) and already love the sound of your home!
