Christmas Season

Decor and aesthetics have been part of Katrine Martensen-Larsen’s life for as long as she can remember. Her mother was a trained interior designer from the School of Interior Design, and her father specialised in design-crafted furniture. Needless to say, many an hour was spent in her childhood home around the dinner table, talking about aesthetics, design and beautiful homes. In 2003, Martensen-Larsen founded KML Design. Ever since, she has carried out interior design tasks for private, commercial and editorial customers. She has produced countless house features for magazines, held a number of styling workshops around Europe and has been a recurring presence on DR TV's lifestyle programme, The Treasure Hunters, for a number of years. In 2019, her interior book Nordic Moods was published worldwide by Lannoo Publishers. Mikkel Adsbøl has worked as an independent photographer since 2006, but has more than 20 years of experience. From his studio in Copenhagen, he works with advertising agencies, commercial customers and editorial media. Adsbøl specialises in interior photography, and is one of Denmark's most recognised practitioners in the field. His working relationship with Katrine dates back to 2003.

"“Scandinavian Christmas decor is holiday magic made manifest. Its organic flourishes and minimalistic silhouettes evoke the season with elegance and ease.”“According to Danish stylist Katrine Martensen-Larsen, Scandinavian holiday decor is all about authenticity rather than ultra-elaborate ornamentation.”“There is no need to buy expensive ornaments or visit exclusive florists… Her guide focuses on using pinecones, dried branches, dried flowers and fewer, but quality, Christmas decorations — in a wonderful mix of old and new, inherited, eclectic, bought and homemade.”" - HGTV
