COPENHAGEN CREATIVES
HOME
The Copenhagen home of furniture designer Nikolaj Mentze and architect Malene Hvidt is a dialogue between the two, a shared and fluid work in progress. Nothing comes into their apartment without its merits being discussed and appraised. “We think good design should create a dialogue between person and object,” says Nikolaj.
“THERE’S SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL IN KNOWING EVERYTHING HAS ITS OWN PLACE. TO US, THESE ROUTINES DEFINE A HOME.”
