Formerly a fairly run-down industrial area, Bermondsey is a vibrant picayune hamlet inward London where a hip crowd mingles inward cosy pubs as well as independent eateries. I chatted amongst interior designer as well as store possessor Christina to discovery out to a greater extent than almost life inward London, the inspiration behind her beautiful dwelling theatre as well as online interior store NABO.
I moved from Copenhagen to London 5.5 years ago. I moved hither to alive amongst my Danish boyfriend, who moved to London for work.

Your dwelling theatre is beautiful! Do y'all piece of job amongst design?

What is the storey behind NABO?
When I moved to the U.K. I was shocked at how much replica slice of furniture I saw inward firms, individual homes - as well as fifty-fifty inward interior pattern studios. I institute that people focused to a greater extent than on getting a 'certain look' than finding slice of furniture that functions inward their daily lives, stands the exam of fourth dimension as well as reflects who they are. I started helping people yesteryear sourcing master Danish vintage slice of furniture (both classics as well as less known names which are to a greater extent than affordable) as well as focusing on novel designers as well as brands that weren't already available inward the UK. This is how I came to opened upwards NABO.

The daybed is from the 1960s as well as is an heirloom from my Grandmother. The slice itself is teak as well as real minimalist - it's something we'll proceed forever, I'm sure enough - but I've added a blue seat cushion to larn inward a picayune to a greater extent than unusual. In fact, I honey heirlooms inward general. As good every bit the daybed, nosotros receive got lamps, dining chairs as well as a java table from our grandparents on both sides, as well as I honey the personality that things which receive got been inward the identify unit of measurement for generations laissez passer on to a space. Whenever I purchase something novel for our home, I inquire myself if it's something I would desire to locomote yesteryear on to my children.
