Biographical Note:
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.

From his studio in Copenhagen, he works with advertising agencies, commercial customers and editorial media.
