A home in harmony:

Christina Dueholm’s personal touch

In a classic Danish villa, Christina Dueholm has crafted a home where beauty meets practicality in perfect balance. With an eye for detail and a passion for timeless design, she masterfully blends old and new, function and aesthetics, creating spaces that inspire and embrace everyday life.

There’s an invisible thread running through every well-designed home— a subtle dance between practicality and beauty—where each piece of furniture and every small object shapes and colours the rhythms and routines of daily life. A sofa must be soft, and a desk chair supportive, but functionality alone isn’t enough. Beauty is the key to creating a home where we don’t just live, but truly thrive.

Merging form and function requires a special sensibility—the ability to see aesthetics and practicality as two sides of the same coin. Christina Dueholm embodies this talent. As the woman behind the Instagram profile @Christinadueholm, she has built a career sharing her refined perspective on fashion and interior design.

We meet 37-year-old Christina in the home she shares with her husband and their two children—a classic villa with herringbone parquet and high ceilings. The home is beautifully styled yet remains practical, with room for play and the hustle of busy mornings. Here, the balance between functionality and aesthetics unfolds naturally, creating a light, vibrant atmosphere.

“I love mixing old and new”, Christina Dueholm explains about her approach to decorating.

In the dining room stands a beautifully aged display cabinet. Its shelves hold a carefully curated mix of vintage treasures and sleek modern designs.

“Many of my finds are pre-loved items that I restore and give a second life. I like pairing them with timeless pieces that can last for years—always with a twist to make them personal”, she says.

Christina’s table setting tips

  • Keep it simple. Use a cohesive colour scheme that ties the table together—perhaps in napkins, a tablecloth, or flowers.
  • Neutral colours create a calm and elegant atmosphere, and a consistent palette ensures a harmonious look.
  • Focus on small, matching details to craft a stylish and inviting table setting.

"Hygge" meets history

When asked to define her style, Christina Dueholm hesitates, despite its clear cohesion—perhaps because it feels equal parts personal and intuitive. Her home is minimalist but never cold; simple yet far from sterile. Light and lamps act as small beacons of warmth, thoughtfully placed to create a cosy glow during Denmark’s long winters. Soft, neutral tones like beige and pastels bring a sense of calm, with a consistent colour palette tying the home together, room by room.

“A home should feel cosy and welcoming, but it shouldn’t feel cluttered. I deliberately keep things minimalist because it gives me peace of mind when there’s not too much to distract me”, Christina Dueholm explains.

Every item in Christina’s home is chosen with care and intention. She avoids fleeting trends, instead opting for pieces designed to last—not just through seasons but for generations.

One cherished example is an heirloom from her grandmother—a stunningly ornate manor mirror now adorning the bedroom.

“It used to hang in a hotel more than a hundred years ago”, says Christina Dueholm.

Now, it connects her to both her family and its history. Worn with age yet fully functional, the mirror symbolises her decorating ethos, where personal stories and timeless design coexist, and imperfections add warmth and charm.

“I love the idea that one day my children will inherit the things we use daily—just as I did with treasures from my childhood home”, Christina Dueholm says.

From Morning Coffee to Festive Dinners

Balancing beauty and practicality can be a challenge, especially when insisting that a home must both function and inspire. Sometimes, incorporating new items requires careful consideration.

“I often weigh aesthetics against practicality, but if I had to choose, aesthetics would win,” Christina Dueholm admits before adding:
“But things still need to work in our daily life.”

One example of the perfect balance between the two, according to Christina, is the dinnerware her family uses daily.

“The Legio Nova collection is designed with timeless simplicity, making it perfect for everything from morning porridge to a grand Christmas dinner”, Christina Dueholm explains.
“And the best part? It’s durable enough to handle everyday use and goes straight in the dishwasher after meals”.

The collection’s clean and timeless design makes it a versatile foundation, seamlessly adapting to any setting or occasion. Christina uses the range—including plates, bowls, glasses, serving dishes, pitchers, and candlesticks—to create an atmosphere that elevates both everyday meals and special celebrations.

“I still remember the bowls I ate my breakfast from as a child and the plates we used for dinner. When you have a set you use for both everyday and special occasions, it becomes part of your family’s story. It’s something the kids will remember when they’re grown”, Christina concludes, adding:

“It’s comforting to have something you know will still be there 20 years from now.”
