He is undoubtedly one of Denmark’s pre-eminent slashies. The fashion-industry insider / creative director / founder and editor-in-chief of Dansk Magazine has recently added a new slash to his list: interior-design consultant and downsizing specialist. Both activities are contained under the umbrella of his agency, Grenaa Creative, and were inspired directly by a recent revolution in his own life: the decision to consolidate all aspects of his personal and professional existence into one small apartment, smack in the heart of Copenhagen. Here Grenaa combines all aspects of his life into one minimal essential space.

CASE STUDY
— DISSONANT BEAUTY
As in music, interior design calls on many elements – rhythm, contrast, repetition – to create that most subjective of visions: beauty.
CINCINATTI MODERN
High on a hillside in Cincinnati, sits a two-storey modernist wonder by two unsung heroes of American architecture, built for an art collector in the 1980s and that has been given a sensitive makeover to accommodate the collection of its second owner.
CREATIVE TRANSITIONS
Based on the loops and twists of the Möbius strip, an icon of mid-century Mexican design has become an integral part of the creative process for its custodian, designer and ceramicist Perla Valtierra.
