Congrats on your new home! Looks amazing. One suggestion for upcoming videos: it would be great if you could subtitle the designer’s names when you mention them so we can educate ourselves 😊 Good luck on your hunting ✨
such a beautiful place - can't wait to see how the traditional details and your modernist ethos come together! also dying to know what the bathroom looks like honestly lol
For the exterior shelves, a good rock collection: souvenirs from beaches, hikes, gongshi, suiseki, mineral specimens, new age crystals, stalactites... For the floor, old school linoleum, made from linseed oil, like old schoolroom flooring, bits of speckled colour in to hide fallen crumbs, maybe in a colour to match the backsplash tiles. Natural material, no slave labour, no off gassing petroleum dross (unlike horrible luxury and builder grade vinyl flooring) Love the black chair and new lamps and all the exposed pipping and the terrace. ❤
on the exterior shelves:: solar lights and or/ candles , bug lights (if needed in Copenhagen), rolled up blankets for cooler weather, baskets or nice containers holding games.. IE cards.
For the shallow shelves on the balcony I'd use them to display picture art, obviously it has to withstand a bit of weather but anything like reliefs, ceramic art, decorative plates, woodcuts, anything flat like that. Also could be a spot for candles
re 3:30 - authentic materials - I had a similar situation in my apartment bathroom, and I put down 'rubber stud' flooring, or garage rubber flooring. It comes in a roll (or tiles) and is very easy to cut to size. Its heavy and thick so you don't need an adhesive or anything. I think it's really quite a beautiful material.
wow love! i feel like we can get a much better sense for your design philosophy when it's applied to your own space. can't wait to see how it evolves :)
That blue is the same color as painters tape. Whenever people use that blue or green for trim and accents it drives me insane 😂. Can’t wait to see how you fix it!
Rubber dot flooring in the kitchen 🙌 maybe a full wall of powder coated metal trellis over the balcony alcoves, with a large climbing plant to conceal them. It’s a beautiful apartment ❤️
I also love the architectural details of your new place. I know you've done a video already on furnishing more architecturally bland spaces, but I was curious if you have any thoughts about adding architectural details to contemporary "white box" houses without seeming inauthentic.
For the shelves, I'd put things that would normally go in a garage, but dressed up. For example tools, but in wooden or metal boxes. Candles, which would be nice to display, and also light in the evening on the balcony; or some rechargeable lanterns. Dedicate a couple shelves for "potter's storage", and even install a wider wood shelf on top of one of the lower shelves, to extend it into a potter's work surface (then use the shelf above that, for the pots and gardening accoutrement. Maybe a way to contain one of the shelves for some of your drinkware, so you don't have to carry glasses out if wanting to wine and dine on the balcony. Citronella candles and incense (don't know if mosquitos are an issue there). Bug sprays and cleaning supplies that can be hidden maybe in a shallow cabinet placed on one of the shelves. Or maybe you can store small items there that don't need to be indoors, and just put roll down shades over each side.
I would put candles in those shelves outside. Little decor, candle, some art, and thats it. A good pendant light would be amazing there, hanging really low at the center of the table that you want to put. For the closet, you could actually put some wallpaper over it, I dont know if you are into that, but theres a huge trend of murals going around, just like Jeremiah Brent's house, that they have in they're bedroom, so I think something like that coud work very well. This place looks amazing, and the architectural details are to die for ♥
god i am SO invested in this. Can't wait to see how you handle those insanely big, white, daunting walls (a similar issue Im dealing with :S). Very curious by that stack of framed art in the living room, would love to see your art collection >.>
I'm so excited, never clicked a video so fast! The place looks gorgeous and I can't wait to see your vision for it coming true! Congratulations to you and your partner! 🖤
Love love love that we get to see the early stages of designing a space while you live there. That everything isn’t gonna be perfect from day one, because interior design takes time! And hearing your plans for the space reminded me of a project that I’ve neglected for the past six months because I’m so inexperienced when it comes to home renovating 😅 gotta get back on that! Keep up the good work!
it's SO GOOD!!! So you. You should start a merch with authentic materials written on it lol can't wait to see the updates. Also, the window above the sink: so good. Hot take: I like the blue frame outdoors. You can lean into a more Mediterranean decor out there (Big Olive tree, cactus, big terracotta . On the shelving, I see different sort of vintage tiles on display (portuguese/spanish style), check out the Design Note: Inside Carolina Irvings Coastal for Inspo. I'd definitely do a open shelving situation in the kitchen to display your ceramics! Also, I'm curious about the bathroom! Thank you for sharing your home with us :)
What if you took the doors off the bedroom closet and put the head of you bed inside. Then you can find a freestanding closet option. To deal with the floor differences, use a nice rug under the bed.
so excited to see this come together! im moving into my own new apartment on sunday and have been planning it out for like 6 months now. the slow process is something that brings me so much joy even though i cant really afford more than second hand finds and ikea- yet im grateful i can afford these things at all as a college student. i love how your apartment looks already! in terms of the wardrobe, curtains could be nice as a temporary fix. if the room was bigger id think of track curtains that cover both the wardrobe and the windows but that might feel womb-like 🤣 i wonder if you could add a more traditional element with the new doors or a textural component. i love that pendant in the living room by the way!
Really excited to watch this series as you decorate your apartment! So fun to see your process as it unfolds. I love the look of the fabric over the table, it's very cute cosy cafe, but I know that whatever table you come up with will be perfect for the room.
I’ve never been so early!! I was just searching for your channel to watch some of your videos and this popped up. The place already looks so crisp and chic before you’ve even fully unpacked. Thanks for sharing your space with us!
Cool , I live in london in the Barbican and love your aesthetic , just wanted to say I have a galley kitchen and plenty of drawers much the same format as yours and I made to decision to remove the over head shelving on one side to open the space , it works beautifully. I really look forward to seeing the evolution of your new home .
I love this so much. Kinda makes me want to live in Copenhagen..you just don’t see these apartments in the US. As for the shelves on the balcony, maybe filling it with big vine-like plants so they eventually hang down, kinda turn it into a plant wall???
Your new space is beautiful, and I really enjoyed your explanations of your feelings of the space and design choices…so much so I watched every minute, which is unusual for me. I can’t wait to see the evolution.
Beautiful apartment--very happy for you! For the kitchen floor, what about a floating cork (not sure of terminology) floor in a distinctly different tone--very pale or very dark, to contrast with the remaining woods? Not sure it's a rental-friendly option, but would be natural and different....
Your new home has fabulous features. mainly so clean and fresh. What about a bowl of green apples and limes or just limes ( the color is so vibrant - maybe not for you?} in the corner under the kitchen cabinet? Enjoy decorating your new space!
Congratulations on your new space!! My Copenhagen apartment has this exact layout. It would be super interesting to see which different ways you've been thinking about utilizing the space.
Hi Noah - I am truly so taken by your style and how you deliver your design philosophy! I’d so love to have you look at my space in a future interior design advice video because it’s feeling so stuck. Where/when do you typically post about upcoming videos?
I'm SO excited to see what you do with the flat! It's amazing to see someone with midcentury taste decorating a classic Danish apartment - a rented one, no less - I'm in a similar situation and need some ideas! I also want to cover the yellow-toned wood of my kitchen floor, and I even have the same weird corner in my bedroom I wish I could fast-forward half a year from now to see the results!
What a gorgeous house! Can't wait to watch all your projects. A little advice from experience: don't burn candles on those balcony shelves, because it will ruin the shelve above it. But an outdoor space like that, does ask for some cosy lights. I would put succulents on the shelves, or find a rectangular pot that fits herbs next to each other. Maybe store your outside candle there to put on the table when you need it, with a nice match box. A photo of some outdoor space you love.
I think mirror in the bedroom nook would be great to bounce light back down the hallway and would help make the space feel bigger. Love, love, LOVE the space and cannot wait to see what you do with it!
Nice place! I would totally use curtains for the closet in the room. That's what I did a few years ago and it looks very nice, it is cheaper than doors and last but not least, it is much more practical than sliding doors.
Forbo does really nice lino/marmoleum flooring you could use in the kitchen. They have a new collection with cocoa bits (waste from chocolate production) in it. It's so beautiful. But their simple plain linos are also very nice. If the shelf on the balcony is not getting sun on it, maybe you could have some bottles with drinks on there. So you bring yourself a glass with an ice cube and just pick a bottle with a delicious drink to poor over it when you sit out there. A few plants would probably be nice too though. Some beautiful ceramic pieces, maybe even lean a small picture/art piece on there? I quite like it when it starts to look a bit weathered after a while. I think the way forward is to just treat it like an indoor space. Looks like it is sheltered from the rain, right? Love your new flat btw! Can't wait to see what you are going to do.
Could you remove the shelves (and store them) to use the space as a double alcove? Or perhaps put brackets underneath and extend the shelves out further? The last idea might not float everyone's boat but it's food for thought. 😅 I really appreciate your thoughtful commentary throughout the video, rather than just showing us the space. Eagerly awaiting future episodes! 🤓😀
So excited for this new series, the apartment is stunning and I can't wait to see how you're gonna furnish and decorate it ✨ Also my grandma has a full set of Aldo Jacober chairs in breech wood, but I had no idea it was a designer piece! Now that I know, it'a shame that they stay in the storage room and are only used when extra seats are needed! So it's fascinating how a piece of furniture can be perceived as something ordinary or as something special and unique
For the outdoor space, I would use the shelves to display some sculptures or pictures of family or friends. Use frame that has plastic not glass so the photo won’t stick. Add a bistro table and maybe some tall plants. You can also lay some artificial grass. This will make if so nice just to either have dinner or drinks to chill. Oh make sure you get some fake candles with timers.
A typical scandi old (most expensive) apartment. Nice high ceilings, gorgeous cornices, proper radiators and french window leading onto the balcony. Pipework being exposed is normal. True scandis always have their dining table in front of the window. Lovely big courtyard. Leave the kitchen cupboard and wardrobe alone!!!! 😅. Cant wait to see how you decorate the flat 😅😅🇬🇧
i would love to hear your thoughts on art studio spaces. i’m an oil painter among other things and i live in a long but narrow studio apartment and my current setup feels so cramped and pushed into a wall, which is so uninspiring
The unfortunate problem with renting is that the landlord has to not only please the tenant in place , but also any future tenant if you should decide to leave. A future tenant may need all the extra space in the kitchen. Beautiful apartment,.
Love this episode! I am moving in to a very similar place on sept 1, so this is so inspiring to see! If you don't intend to keep the leather chair, I'll happily buy it from you :))
Love everything about this! I'm really curious to see how you'll style the dining table. I'm also in the process of changing mine (we have a lot of furniture "inherited" from previous tenants that I want to change) and just bough two teak Danish chairs very similar to yours. The mismatched chairs situation is super appealing because you can frequently find great deals for one or two chair instead of a full set but I find it so hard to match them + the table in terms of wood tones, shape, etc. So I'll definitely pull a lot of inspiration from you. If you could do a video about that it would be amazing!
What a gorgeous apartment! So much nicer than the one by the cemetery!! You square 1 is goals on so many levels already. Does Brooklinen ship to Europe btw? I’m in Barcelona.
I would watch movies on a projector over the blinds in the bedroom. Cool kitchen. I 100% love the sink under the window. So cool. What are your winters like? Snow?
Your design aesthetic is gorgeous. I really appreciate and agree with your design approach and the way you consider the different elements of your space. 100% agree with everything that you've said - The dining room table would look great in a mid-toned wood with rounded edges to anchor and strengthen the space (and your chairs are fab); absolutely gutted for you about the new couch not complimenting the amazing accent chair your partner found (as you say, it speaks so well to the pendant light in color and form, and the pop of these two features will be diminished by a dominant couch. Still, it is the right decision - I hope the couch fabric is a similar to the chocolate color of your jumper!); your landlord's permanent positioning of the bedroom cabinet is BLOODY CRIMINAL, it locks the bed placement into one of the worst positions for feng shui (a fix could be to flip the layout 180degrees, move the cabinet to the opposite wall, even out the flooring under the bed with something temporary just so the bed isn't off kilter, and then lay down a rug semi-under the bed to hide the different flooring). Please, for all our sakes, do vlog your updates of the apartment. I can't wait for the next installment :)
Lovely! But sad becouse without the open space u don’t need no room divider (separè) 😢 and I’m kinda obsessed with it now. What about adding one in the living room that goes along with the plants?
Idk why but I picture transformer table’s new rounded table in the dining room. Probably because I’m intrigued by them in general. Love dynamic, versatile furniture 😂
Congrats on your new home! Looks amazing. One suggestion for upcoming videos: it would be great if you could subtitle the designer’s names when you mention them so we can educate ourselves 😊 Good luck on your hunting ✨
Noah is the Mr. Rogers of interior 💕

I'd put herbs on those shelves
Rock collection.
A lovely collection of glass bottles propagating your plant cuttings!
I am so happy for you! As for the wardrobe - I think I would also do curtains and hang them from the ceiling. It will feel so cozy!
agree! take the doors off entirely and hang curtains
re 3:30 - authentic materials - I had a similar situation in my apartment bathroom, and I put down 'rubber stud' flooring, or garage rubber flooring. It comes in a roll (or tiles) and is very easy to cut to size. Its heavy and thick so you don't need an adhesive or anything. I think it's really quite a beautiful material.
The pendant in the living room is gorgeous!
wow love! i feel like we can get a much better sense for your design philosophy when it's applied to your own space. can't wait to see how it evolves :)
What a lovely space. It’s the perfect blank canvas.
thanks for sharing the whole “before” (and your thoughts) rather than "after" only, now I'm fully prepared for the "after"!
Congratulations on you’re new beautiful place. May it bring you and your partner a bunch of joy
So excited for your new place! I’d definitely do potted herbs on those narrow shelves on the balcony. All in aged terracotta pots, naturally. 😉
Ooh and strawberries
Noah! Congrats! Convincing me to move to Copenhagen one video at a time 😭
Come!! 🙇🏻
That blue is the same color as painters tape. Whenever people use that blue or green for trim and accents it drives me insane 😂. Can’t wait to see how you fix it!
UUUUUGH THAT PENDANT SHADE!!!! Stunning. Gorgeous. What a find. Ties the whole space together with a simple elegance. All hail the pendant 🙌
Rubber dot flooring in the kitchen 🙌 maybe a full wall of powder coated metal trellis over the balcony alcoves, with a large climbing plant to conceal them. It’s a beautiful apartment ❤️
The Danisch Vietnamese lighting brand mentioned in this video is: Oi Soi Oi

The silk feature in the living space is perfect for your space and marries the architecture and modern furniture. Bravo. Beautiful
HOME UPDATES YES YES YES 🩶🩶🩶
Could you take down the shelves and use the slight alcove to just “frame” a couple of larger potted plants, or the two chairs
it's SO GOOD!!! So you. You should start a merch with authentic materials written on it lol can't wait to see the updates. Also, the window above the sink: so good.

Very beautiful old apartment. It’s amazing, how you two have managed to organise your belongings so fast. I would still be living out of the boxes.
Would you consider a round mid-century walnut dining table in the dining room/office?
Ahhh I’ll have to come back and watch when I can actually sit down and look at my screen! So excited for you guys, congrats!!
i love that you love less cabinets and more open shelving in the kitchen
I’ve never been so early!! I was just searching for your channel to watch some of your videos and this popped up. The place already looks so crisp and chic before you’ve even fully unpacked. Thanks for sharing your space with us!

Congratulations!! Also, so happy to see your channel growing - your advice is top quality, and your videos are always informative and soothing 🌼
Your new home has fabulous features. mainly so clean and fresh. What about a bowl of green apples and limes or just limes ( the color is so vibrant - maybe not for you?} in the corner under the kitchen cabinet? Enjoy decorating your new space!
Congratulations on your new space!! My Copenhagen apartment has this exact layout. It would be super interesting to see which different ways you've been thinking about utilizing the space.
I am enjoying vicarious excitement for you and your new home. A subtle jewel of beauty and pleasure and year 'round comfort. Tillykke!
Hi Noah - I am truly so taken by your style and how you deliver your design philosophy! I’d so love to have you look at my space in a future interior design advice video because it’s feeling so stuck. Where/when do you typically post about upcoming videos?
obsessed with the living room pendant
You could consider Marmoleum for the kitchen. They make tiles.
I am living vicariously through this... so excited to see all the changes you end up making!!
i have two of the folding chairs dating back to university in the mid seventies...they are awesome
It’s so beautiful!! Excited to see what you do with it! 💗
After a long wait! Finally the video is here!
I was LITERALLY looking at that exact living room chair for a client lol 😅Great minds think alike!
I'm SO excited to see what you do with the flat! It's amazing to see someone with midcentury taste decorating a classic Danish apartment - a rented one, no less - I'm in a similar situation and need some ideas! I also want to cover the yellow-toned wood of my kitchen floor, and I even have the same weird corner in my bedroom I wish I could fast-forward half a year from now to see the results!

I need episode 2 soon
I live in Copenhagen - I would be so happy to buy your couch when time comes! 👀🤍
Fantastic for day one, square one! Looking forward to seeing how you design this beautiful space! Thanks so much for sharing.
congrats
Put candles on the balcony shelves!!
Ouuu so exciting! Thank you for showing us, and looking forward to see how it develops.
I feel sympathy for that cactus in the balcony in Denmark weather
I don’t know how you would feel about this, but in the kitchen you could just get a vinyl sheet and cover the floor. A fun, solid color could be cool.
Let’s go! So excited for you! There’s nothing better than moving into a new place. Congrats.
I think mirror in the bedroom nook would be great to bounce light back down the hallway and would help make the space feel bigger. Love, love, LOVE the space and cannot wait to see what you do with it!
the blue door frames is giving painters tape lol
Can't wait to see how you end up decorating the apartment:)
Nice place! I would totally use curtains for the closet in the room. That's what I did a few years ago and it looks very nice, it is cheaper than doors and last but not least, it is much more practical than sliding doors.
Forbo does really nice lino/marmoleum flooring you could use in the kitchen. They have a new collection with cocoa bits (waste from chocolate production) in it. It's so beautiful. But their simple plain linos are also very nice.
If the shelf on the balcony is not getting sun on it, maybe you could have some bottles with drinks on there. So you bring yourself a glass with an ice cube and just pick a bottle with a delicious drink to poor over it when you sit out there. A few plants would probably be nice too though.

I think the way forward is to just treat it like an indoor space. Looks like it is sheltered from the rain, right? Love your new flat btw! Can't wait to see what you are going to do.
You could use the shelves as a bar, with a nice collection of glasses, wine bottles and/or liquer bottles....
Could you remove the shelves (and store them) to use the space as a double alcove? Or perhaps put brackets underneath and extend the shelves out further? The last idea might not float everyone's boat but it's food for thought. 😅
I really appreciate your thoughtful commentary throughout the video, rather than just showing us the space. Eagerly awaiting future episodes! 🤓😀
UGH CPH IS THE BEST I'm so jealous I'm puking excited
i actually kind of love the light fixture on your patio
So excited for this new series, the apartment is stunning and I can't wait to see how you're gonna furnish and decorate it ✨

very cozy and simplicity
can't wait to see how this will turn out!
Paint the outside terrace door and door trim sage green! 😁

Lovely! But sad becouse without the open space u don’t need no room divider (separè) 😢 and I’m kinda obsessed with it now.
What about adding one in the living room that goes along with the plants?
Love the new apartment. Are the hay rice paper pendants stark white when not lit? Or do they have some off white ness ?
Idk why but I picture transformer table’s new rounded table in the dining room. Probably because I’m intrigued by them in general. Love dynamic, versatile furniture 😂
What a beautiful home in a beautiful city! I go there for work once in awhile.
