Designer Karsten Bach  felt a bit tired by the traditional minimalist styled Scandinavian  interiors so she brought bit of French style into her 200 m2 large apartment. There is really a bit of Parisian luxury feeling with all the eclectic pieces, but good old Arne Jacobsens chairs still remind you, that you are in Scandinavia. Nice combination which for sure works here.
