From a summer cottage on an island in southern Jutland, Denmark yesterday – to the fields of Skåne, South Sweden today: welcome to Marie and Eric’s beautiful country home. The pair have been painstakingly restoring their dream home for over four years – transforming both the interior and exterior. To say they had vision would be an understatement. In fact, the facade alone will inspire any house hunter out there to see beyond less attractive exteriors! Step inside, and you’re transported into a cosy world of exposed wood beams, arched windows, DIY cabinets and antique furniture. Ready to feel inspired? Let’s take the tour.
Exterior before
A red brick house has been given a complete make-over with the help of a new facade, windows and doors.
Exterior after
Entrance before

Main kitchen after the renovation
The beautiful black glass cabinet was made using a built-in structure fitted with antique pains. It reminds me of the DIY cabinet in the Montana home of Jana Roach.
Main living area before
Previously a warren of small, modern rooms, Eric and Marie completely gutted the space, knocking down walls, ripping out the floor and stripping back the ceiling to reveal the original wood beams and original architecture.
Main living area after
The cosy open-plan living room and dining area is bathed in light from arched windows, while wood beam ceilings add warmth and an intimate feel to the spacious room.
Mezzanine floor after
Bathroom before
The bathroom is pretty much unrecognisable, with the ceiling completely knocked through and smaller windows exchanged for arched glass doors in keeping with traditional Skåne architecture.
Bathroom after
Quite the transformation!
I love it when a house is restored to its former glory like this, it requires so much dedication, but the results are so worth it!
Is there anything that stood out to you?
You can see more of Marie and Eric’s wonderful home and their ongoing renovation over at @oliverogård.
There are a ton more ‘before and after’ tours in this archive if you feel like hanging around for a while (if this pops up first, just scroll past!).
I’m very excited about sharing my new dream wardrobe with you tomorrow including the before pictures, the design and results. I hope you’re going to like it as much as I do – hopefully it might inspire anyone out there looking to create some more storage!
Vi ses imorgon!
