Interior architects Alexandra Ogonowski and Jesper Nyborg make up AO / JND Interiors. Together, they renovated the 147-square-metre apartment for the client, whose desire was to create a private home based on calm and elegance that could blend in with the client's art collection.

Their interior design philosophy is to create simple, clean design and then sculpt the details to get a well-crafted, elegant feeling. In this home, they have consistently chosen to work with a mixture of the Scandinavian stripped down and luxurious French. To create dynamism, they have accents in black, wood and marble.

The whole home has a clear common thread and is a wonderful mix of French elegance and Scandinavian purity. The Chevron parquet, the wall panel and the broken white tone are classic French details, while the light, stripped-down furniture, the airy atmosphere and the details in wood feel typically Scandinavian.

B3 Apartment living areas are located in three rooms in line with the street. First comes the living room, then the generous dining room and at the far end you will find the kitchen. The kitchen itself has a limited area, so it was important that the design feels airy, open and well thought out.

Since the apartment owner would like to be able to arrange larger dinners, a solution was desired that facilitates social occasions. Therefore, the kitchen has a large kitchen island that overlooks the dining room and a double set of fridge and freezer. The kitchen island has been given a recessed base, which makes it look like it is floating in the room, which contributes to an airy, open feeling. By choosing a bench fan behind the stove, you open up further and get even more space in the room.

The beautifully arched windows found in all rooms of the apartment were used as inspiration for the elegant glass walls between the dining room and the kitchen. To create a well-crafted and luxurious feeling, they have been given a beautiful bar that matches the architecture and then stained in a tone that matches the kitchen.
