A new-build family home in Nærum

We were asked to help a couple with three children bring warmth, function, and flow to the home they’d just built with their architect – just north of Copenhagen. They wanted professional support with the hallway, dining room and living room, and invited us in early in the process to shape the interior around their daily life.
