About the Author

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 specialized 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.
