In the heart of Copenhagen, by the Lakes in Nørrebro, we find Asbjørn Mangs' unique residence. The 28-year-old founder of the reputable chewing gum company Eace Gum welcomes us to a world of colours and creativity in his vibrant home, where he lives with his girlfriend, Anna. With a background in International Business & Politics and an unstoppable entrepreneurial spirit, Asbjørn is a man who is passionate about creating, exploring, and inspiring.

When you meet Asbjørn, you immediately notice his joy, passion, and sense of adventure. These qualities are clearly mirrored in his home, which serves as a space for reflecting his lifestyle and personality. In particular, the hallway, which is the first thing you notice when entering the flat, is a reflection of this. Everything from floor to ceiling, even the bookcases on the wall, is colour-drenched in Mingle More from the Trend Notes® collection.

I'm very much an all-in person. So when I decided to paint the flat, it had to be full-on. I wanted some colours that provide a creative spark and energy in everyday life.

The colours in Asbjørn's flat are a central part of his homely oasis. The decision to go all-in and paint his walls in lively colours has been very natural for him, as this bold colour palette, from which he has created his home, both reflects his personality and inspires him to think outside the box.

When friends and family step into Asbjørn's home, they are often surprised and excited by the colours. It sparks a conversation about individuality and the courage to stand out. Even though the colours may not suit everyone's taste, they are an integral part of Asbjørn's lifestyle and contribute to making his home unique.

Despite being busy and investing a lot of time and energy in his business, Asbjørn also values close relationships and an active life with his girlfriend, dog, and friends.

For Asbjørn, the perfect day begins by waking up well-rested in the calm, blue bedroom, without the use of an alarm clock.

My bedroom serves as a peaceful retreat where I can get a good night's sleep after a long and active day.

In the kitchen, the terracotta-pink floor from the hallway continues. The combination of the creamy Double Truffle, Mingle More, and the dusty green fronts from Reform acts as an appetite-booster and allows for delicious cooking and creative expression.

Next on Asbjørn's to-do list is the bathroom. He plans to add a touch of KABRIC from DETALE CPH to create a new look and a unique atmosphere. After that, he will take some time to enjoy not having any housing projects in the calendar for a while.
