Josefine Meyer

Step into the Østerbro home of Josefine Meyer, furnished slowly and thoughtfully with inherited pieces and quiet, considered choices. The Balance Sculpture sums it up best: for Josefine, true balance means going all in at work, then coming fully home.

Home is the most sacred place Josefine has. Here, the pace slows automatically, there is nothing she has to do, and she and her partner can simply be themselves. She doesn't mind a bit of mess, but sleeps best when things are tidy, and her creativity flourishes when she dares to take life a little less seriously.

Josefine and her partner are currently furnishing their home in Østerbro. She recently got her first desk, found on DBA and paired with a Y Chair inherited from her grandmother, which fits perfectly in both height and colour. Together, they have become one of her favourite spots in the home.

Her approach to interiors is guided by personality, comfort, and colour, and by the belief that heirlooms only grow more valuable with time. During her university years, she kept selling off her books, convinced that large bookcases belonged to the past. She was wrong: three boxes found in the attic are now stacked throughout her home, often topped with a small found object, while she waits to one day gather enough books for the big bookcase. For Josefine, interiors are about feeling rather than looks, an approach her mother once put into words: decorating is a project you never finish.

Her childhood home was filled with colour and wood, a red living room, a green kitchen, a blue bedroom. After a period of white and muted tones, Josefine found her way back to what home truly feels like to her. Today, wood, colour, heirlooms, and objects with history matter most, because sentimental value is something only time can give.

Josefine chose the Balance Sculpture, drawn to both its beauty and its symbolism. Her working life is full of contrasts, and the most important balance for her is going all in, never halfway. But what matters most is being able to fully set work aside and be a hundred percent present with her partner, her family, and her friends.

For Josefine, home is about calm: the feeling of coming home, putting her hair up, and slipping into comfortable clothes. As long as she has her partner, their quiet, and phones put away, she feels at home.
