What I do

I work with materials color and space across private homes and professional environments. My focus is on creating a clean base. A foundation where colors and materials represent the people living there.

No matter the scale every project is a personal interaction. My role is to see you and your space helping you enhance your aesthetic and vision.

Color curation

Colors have the power to change the entire feeling of a space. The right colors have the power to uplift and inspire you. A curated color scheme connects and highlights materials light and architecture. In this process I am always aiming for a personal and balanced atmosphere.

As part of my work with color I have developed a palette of wall colors and Italian tiles in collaboration with Blēo.
Should a project require a specific tone outside the existing range I mix bespoke colors to find the exact nuance for the space.

Tailor made curtains

I handpick textiles in Italy, often from rare and limited existing stocks of surplus materials. In this way, I encourage you to use what is already there, and you will get something that is only available in limited quantities.

Every curtain or roman blind is bespoke and produced in Denmark or Italy, depending on the scale and character of the project. I work with curtains across private homes and professional environments, including retail spaces, hotels and restaurants.

Custom interior elements 

Planning and development of bespoke kitchens, wardrobes, solid wood doors and more, in collaboration with a specialized workshop in Latvia. If you are working on a house project and wish to preserve the original aesthetic rather than exchanging everything for new and modern elements, we can recreate exact versions of your existing doors and windows. This includes matching the metal hitches and handles to ensure a seamless look.

The possibilities are many, but we do not compromise on quality. No project is too small, and I manage the entire process, from initial measurements and design to 3D visualisations and the finished installation at your place

Upholstery and soft furnishings

Bespoke furniture and interior elements, from headboards and bed covers to sofas and cushions. Everything is made to measure in collaboration with specialized makers in Italy. I source unique textiles to ensure that every piece is personal and fits the specific atmosphere of your home or project.

Finding and buying vintage treasures

My love for vintage furniture goes back as long as I can remember. I find and source one of a kind treasures in Italy to share with my clients. It is about finding the missing piece that ties a room together, making a space feel personal and complete. Every object is handpicked to represent the people living or working there.

Material and spatial consultation

An overall look at proportions and the interaction between materials, elements, textures and colors. I help you navigate the spatial possibilities of your home or professional environment, focusing on how every choice impacts the atmosphere.

I dedicate a lot of time to finding the right elements for a project, whether it is a specific stone, a lamp or a piece of furniture. I can source and handle everything from the initial quotes to the final logistics, ensuring that each choice fits the overall vision.

My mission is to connect the dots of something real and tangible, creating a space where you feel energized, safe and inspired.
