Nothing puts a smile on your face quite like a home with a touch of colour (OK puppies, kittens etc might also do the trick – but I’m talking strictly Scandinavian interiors here!). And in my mind, no one does colour quite like the Danes. Our Nordic friends seem to have a knack of finding shades that are both bold and earthy in equal measure. Think soft pink, deep blue and mid greens applied to walls, pieces of furniture or a subtle hint in a painting or book jacket. Either way, combined with whitewashed walls and floors as well as art and books, and the overall look is fresh, vibrant, relaxed and effortlessly stylish. Another Studio, a Danish creative content and product development studio run by Julie Wittrup Pladsbjerg (who’s home I recently featured here) and Mikkel Dahlstrøm, has an innate ability to seek out some of Denmark’s finest homes for interior magazines. Here are 15 relaxed spaces from their portfolio – that really put a smile on my face, I hope they brighten up your day too! 

1 & 2. The colourful home of Sofie S. Boisen featured in ALT Interiør.

3. The pretty studio of artist Little Detroit featured in BoligLiv

5. Princess and the pea (AKA one of the world’s cutest pups) in the home of Mai-Britt 

6. Books piled high on the floor (featured in ALT Interiør)

7. Colourful book jackets make a wonderful feature in the home of Freja Bak Petersen.

 9. There’s so much to love about Mia’s dining room starting with the dark blue wall and touches of pink and gold1 

10. Sometimes all it takes is some colourful cushions and a deep blue pouf and the room is made, as seen in the home of @toves_room and featured in BoligLiv.  

11. When you have windows like these in Mia’s home, it would be rude not to sit there and enjoy the view. With a coffee. For hours. 

12. A little table, a floor lamp, art and a vase in Kristiane’s home (featured in ALT Interiør). Because no space needs to be dead space, not even if it’s tucked behind a door in the corner of the room! 

13. How’s this spot for a quiet afternoon siesta in Hanne’s dining room

14. Feeling the blue touches in Karoline’s sitting room (featured in BoligLiv)

15. Balancing colour to perfection: a bright blue floor which matches a fabulous lamp! I’m so curious to see the rest of Tova’s danish home, how about you? 

Are you also feeling full of inspiration? 

Seriously, this is just the tip of the iceberg from all the fabulous spaces Julie and Mikkel have styled and photographed. Hop on over to the Another Studio instagram feed for countless more spaces! 

If you’re feeling the Danish style, you might also like to come and join me in the danish home archive too – it’s one of my absolute favourites (warning – you can get lost in there for hours!). If this post pops up first, just scroll on past. 

In the words of the Danes – ha en dejlige dag!
