Settled in the vibrant neighborhood of Nørrebro in Copenhagen, Mathilde Moberg found a sweet spot to unwind from her busy life as an independent creative consultant. Her flat, sleek yet unpretentious, with a nod to midcentury modern vintage, perfectly mirrors her personality. This space effortlessly combines minimalist Scandinavian modernism with subtle vintage elements and thoughtfully curated details stand out in this calm setting (especially the lighting!). The TWIN sofa in Mathilde’s living room offers a comfortable spot to relax and recharge, while also serving as the centerpiece for countless cozy gatherings with friends.
How do you find balance between your public persona and private life?
as an independent creative consultant and I think the best way to find balance is by setting clear boundaries, staying true to my values and prioritizing the people I surround myself with. I’m very privileged in that I work with a lot of the people I also spend my free time with, so the balance often comes easily.
In what ways has failure or a setback shaped your path to where you are now?
Failure has taught me resilience and the importance of adaptation. Setbacks have given me the space to rethink, with clearer intentions and a better understanding of what I truly want to achieve.
What is the most important lesson learned in your career so far?
The most important lesson I’ve learned is to never compromise my integrity and authenticity - to trust in myself and my values, even in a fast-paced and competitive industry. This not only builds trust with the people I work with but also ensures that the work I produce is authentic and aligned with my personal and professional values.
How do you manage to stay grounded in an industry that’s constantly evolving?
I stay grounded by always focusing on relationships and authenticity in everything I do. Even though the marketing industry is constantly shifting, the most important thing for me is to remember that it's all about people. Whether it's collaborating with influencers, brands, or clients, the human connection is always at the core.
When do you feel most creative?
I feel most creative when I have the freedom to express myself and work with people who trust me. Creativity thrives when I’m given the space to experiment, but also when I’m challenged to think in new ways.
What is the feeling of a home to you?
Home, for me, is a place of comfort, safety, and authenticity. It is where I
find peace, surrounded by cherished memories with the people around me.
It’s a place where I can truly be myself, unwind, and recharge.
What’s your favorite corner in your home, and why does it hold such significance for you?
My favorite corner in my home is the nook by the window. It's where I can sit with a cup of coffee, read a book or just gather my thoughts. This space represents my moment of stillness.
What’s the most surprising element in your home that guests often notice?
If people don't know that I have a little French bulldog, he can often come around the corner as a little surprise! haha!
Which city or country has inspired your style the most, and how is that reflected in your home?
