This apartment in the heart of Copenhagen is home to Marie Graunbøl, her husband Jonas and their daughter Elin Mildrid. After many years abroad they have finally settled in their native Denmark and have renovated this 1300 sq ft apartment to fit their lifestyle. One of their mantras while they were decorating was : Don't be afraid of white walls, meaning: You don't have to use all available space. It's nice to get a break, also visually, Marie says. The same restraint shows in the choice of colors and materials. With soft natural colors and shades of white as a basis the few black and colorful accents really stand out.Together it is a harmonious mix and an overall feel of spaciousness.
