Despite being a capital with an abundance of great design, finding a beautiful and affordable hotel to stay at is not necessarily that easy here in Copenhagen. Most of these come with a price tag or a location that is a bit too far out in case you're just in town for a few days and don't want to spend too much precious time on the subway. Which is why this relatively new Hotel SP34 is a great choice ...
Recently, I did a guide to the most beautiful design restaurants in town for Copenhagen Food and included Mielcke & Hurtigkarl, a heavy weight in the Copenhagen restaurant scene. When they asked if I wanted to come by one evening and taste the menu, I was excited to say the least. Praising reviews of this place are everywhere online ...
There is something magical about botanical gardens, and this one in the center of Copenhagen is no exception. Ever since I went here on an overcast day this Spring to shoot it for an Instagram guide to Copenhagen for Guided by Cereal (some of you might recognize the first photo in this post), I have been meaning to go back and take some photos of the greenhouses from the inside ...
Back in Copenhagen. Back to real life, overpriced coffee, everyone looking beautiful and exactly the same, dark afternoons and freezing nights, quiet streets in the city center and a very low-key ambiance all over the city. No more wonderfully weird New Yorkers, no more exploring new neighborhoods, no more of that breathtaking skyline as a constant reminder of the many different lives in that huge city ...
In Central Copenhagen you will find this ceramics shop, that I have only recently discovered - but I'm glad I did, because I will definitely be coming back here next time I am in search of some beautiful ceramic pieces. Four Danish designers are displaying and selling their work, and the small but bright and airy shop is absolutely gourgeous in that cool, Scandinavian way ...
The Glypthoteque in Copenhagen is one of the most peaceful places in town and well worth a visit whether you are into sculpture collections or not. This beautiful 19th century building holds an Ancient Mediterranean collection on the first floor, where the majority of these photos are from. The different rooms - both grandiose with marble floors and less dramatic - are all painted in different colors ...
It is no secret that I am quite a big fan of this place, and anyone who is following along on Instagram will have seen a bunch of photos from Restaurant Höst. But just look at it - can you blame me? The restaurant in Central Copenhagen recently won the award for the best designed restaurant in the world, so I guess I am not the only one smitten with it's interior design ...
First off: I can't believe it's been four months since my last post! This blog has been neglected big time, and it's about time it's brought back to life (because I really like it here). The reason for my absence is the same old one.. I have been busy with work which, as a freelancer, is a pretty good situation to be in. But when work means writing and photographing for a living ...
