Expressing yourself through your home’s art, furniture, and design not only informs others about what you love, it provides the priceless benefit of feeling comfortable in your own skin in the place that matters most. Matching your home's aesthetic to your lifestyle – whether you're a Creative who loves artistic pursuits, a 9-to-5er dedicated to working or studying from home, or a Homebody who relishes time spent in the great indoors – is a helpful place to start.
“People are influenced by their surroundings,” says Erik Thompson, Assistant Manager at Copenhagen Living Austin. Thompson is part of Copenhagen’s customer-focused sales and design team. They’ve been helping clients decide on the furniture and art that suits their lifestyle since the family-owned furniture store opened its first location in 1970. Thompson notes, “It’s important that you surround yourself with the right furniture, art, and people in your home. These things are all good indicators of your personality as they are, in a way, an extension of it.”
When looking for the right furniture to enhance and support your lifestyle, the diverse collection of contemporary and modern designs Copenhagen offers stands out. Sleek, exceptionally designed, and effortlessly functional, Copenhagen pieces are essential artworks that double as sophisticated furniture.
“Here at Copenhagen, our buying team understands the importance of delivering cutting-edge, intuitive designs to our customers,” Thompson explains. “They carefully select designs that represent us as a company and our customers, while also staying ahead of the times. Copenhagen's unique aesthetics are rooted in simplicity, practicality, and elegance. This aesthetic began with Erik Vinther Hansen, co-founder and long-time CEO of Copenhagen, and his dedication to contemporary design remains the cornerstone of everything we do here.”
Copenhagen furnishings inspire passion both for their practical and aesthetic value. With the help of a Copenhagen furniture expert, Creatives, 9-to-5ers, and Homebodies can all find the ideal furniture that complements their lifestyle goals and their space.
A Welcoming Ambiance Brings Warmth to Winter Gatherings

Mix Dark Browns, Soft Leathers & Wood Tones for a Cozy, Organic Look
A few well-chosen tweaks or additions may be all you need to turn your home into a haven for autumn and winter. As Diana said, pay particular attention to pieces like rugs, chairs, or accent pillows that can be switched out for ones with a more autumnal pattern or color, like rich brown. Also consider what new materials you can welcome into your home for the colder months. Why not try Diana's recommendation for leather, wood, or other organic elements to spruce up your space? As you plan to transition your home for the fall and winter, visit the Copenhagen website or your nearest showroom in Tucson, Phoenix, Scottsdale, or Gilbert, AZ or San Antonio or Austin, TX to see what’s possible.
"Look at a chair like the Viking, and it’s not hard to see how Danish designs inspired mid-century modern furniture that came out in the 1950’s. This look also called for accessories to have a little bit more of an organic take on Art Deco. Visit any house like the Frank Lloyd Wright House in Scottsdale, and you will see the accessories have the same lines as the furniture - the wood, canvas and metals all joining together to create a clean look.”
Colette says adding natural elements is key to freshening up a space, noting the Birch Divider, a 7-foot sculpture of realistic birch trunks, is one great way to “bring a little nature inside.” The Large Petroglyph Vase adds a modern take on an earthy element, yet another way to add clean, uncluttered accents to a room. The Trio Medium Vase also evokes a traditional ceramic piece in taupe and black colors that naturally warm the room.
Colette adds that decisions her clients make about accessories should always feel exciting and comfortable to them.
“My goal is to help customers fashion their home into a place they don't want to leave. That is their kingdom and they should love everything they look at when they walk in.”
In addition to furniture, Copenhagen designers work with wall art, vases, sculptures and other accent pieces that fully create a room. Adding art and accessories to our living space invites us to make subtle statements that complement the seasons without changing out the larger furniture. Colette Pedersen and her colleagues at Copenhagen will guide you through the process of refreshing your space as spring continues. Visit the Copenhagen website or your nearest Copenhagen location to preview accessories and artwork for you and your home.
Make a bold statement and add color to your space with the Blooms in Tangerine painting.
“I personally like that we are seeing earth tones and warm colors more than we have before when we had a lot of colors with the volume turned up,” says Colette. “For instance, I see the darker blues, midnight and cerulean blues, shown with champagne colors. We are also seeing this trend in the brands we carry at Copenhagen.”
"
“I also encourage clients to have a ‘keepsake’ or memory room,” says Colette. “This room can be filled with family photos and artifacts so common spaces stay clean, bright, and most importantly, free of clutter.”
According to Colette, Danish design and accessories have a rich history and timeless appeal.

Lifestyle One: The Creative
As a Homebody, maybe you love to host parties and family nights, or maybe your idea of bliss is simply returning home after a long day and relaxing with a book in your favorite chair. Either way, furniture that’s comfortable, versatile, and aesthetically appealing is crucial to building a space that you and your loved ones can’t wait to come home to.
“Our associates at Copenhagen care about how your furniture fits into your lifestyle," says Thompson. "As a Homebody, I like to get super cozy with deep-sitting sofas and reclining seats and would recommend the Jordan Sofa to a fellow Homebody. We also understand that people drawn to this lifestyle consider their home a ‘sanctuary’ so it must look inviting and beautiful.”
Copenhagen’s showrooms are full of possibilities to enrich your space. For instance, the Dutton collection offers modular chairs, chaises, and ottomans that can be arranged into a custom sectional, or placed separately depending on your needs. The Max Power Motion Recliner by Stressless® offers full-body relaxation that you can customize at the touch of a button. For the Homebody who's also a gamer or movie buff, the Andrea TV Cabinet offers LED lighting, a black glass front, and a revolving TV pillar arm to elevate entertainment nights. For gatherings, why go to the club when you can show off your Orbit Mirror Wall Bar, with its sleek mirrored interior and LED lights that can synchronize to music?
Lifestyle Two: The 9-to-5er
The 9-to-5er might consider the Sequel 20, a stylish and intuitive lift desk with a programmable keypad, wire management, and a scratch-resistant top. Of equal importance is an office chair that keeps your body comfortable through your workday or long study sessions. Copenhagen's Run II Mid-Back Chair is an ergonomic, customizable piece that fits the bill. For multifunctionality, the Sequel 20 Cabinet offers plenty of storage for files, supplies, and even a printer in its various drawers and trays, while the mobile and height-adjustable Serif Laptop Table solves a variety of work needs in a range of settings.
“Maintaining a good work-life balance is important,” says Thompson. “You cannot sacrifice comfort for function or vice versa. The good news is that Copenhagen offers furniture that gives you the best of both worlds, like the Caveoso Sofa. With an integrated table to place a laptop on and an adjustable backrest, it perfectly unifies comfort and function. Or, try the Caveoso Chaise paired with a laptop table to ensure you get those emails sent and catch up on your favorite TV show."
Whether you’re working from home or back in school for the year, having a dedicated workspace that keeps you organized, focused, and productive is paramount for 9-to-5ers. Clean, functional design can help get the work done.
“Inspired by timeless Danish design and its architectural tradition, Copenhagen focuses on carrying furniture that is supremely functional as well as beautifully minimalistic,” says Thompson. “This is the type of furniture you want to seek out to create a stable work-life balance.”
Lifestyle Three: The Homebody
For the ultimate in comfort and ease-of-use, Thompson recommends Copenhagen's new BDI bedroom collection. He says, "Incorporating the Up-Linq bed will make you never want to leave its sanctuary, because it has a light-up headboard with hidden charging ports and a recessed shelf for small necessities. It also has a cushioned, slatted platform that reduces vibration and noise so you can sleep soundly."
With locations across the Southwest, Copenhagen Living brings modern and contemporary design to a city near you. Whether you identify as a Creative, a 9-to-5er, or a Homebody (or even a combination of all three), matching your home to your personality can help ensure your needs are met.
"Here at Copenhagen, we work hard to combine excellent customer service and design knowledge with unique, functional furnishings to create the ultimate stress-free shopping experience," Thompson says. "Prioritizing products that are designed with the user in mind allows us to ensure every client finds the furniture they need for their lifestyle."

Rubio says lift desks continue to grow in popularity for good reason. “They allow people to stretch and move while still being productive.”
For instance, the Soma 60" Lift Desk adjusts from 24 inches to almost 50 inches, allowing a variety of height modifications whether sitting or standing. Soma’s wire management cradle eliminates most cable clutter and includes a surge protector and additional outlets. Proper lighting is just as critical to productivity as seat posture and desk height. An LED desk lamp like the Z-Bar has a long lifespan, a dimmable touch switch, and a three-bar design for ultimate reach and flexibility.
Designers are coming out with cutting-edge furniture pieces every day. As a forward-thinking retailer, Copenhagen keeps its eye on the market to bring the best of these products to their collection.
Whether it's an adjustable mattress, an ergonomic living room chair, or a multifunctional dining table, intuitively designed furniture makes life easier for people with a range of body types in many different situations and settings. If there's a space in your home that you wish were simplified, more adaptable, or more enjoyable to use, consider revamping it with intuitive furniture.

From painting to poetry, digital art to dancing, creative pursuits enrich many of our lives. Copenhagen offers a range of furniture that can make it easier for Creatives to enter a flow state and reach new artistic heights.
“Many artists draw inspiration from their surroundings, and a Creative thrives in a beautiful and unique aesthetic that is rich in textures and color,” says Thompson. He suggests the Pop Art Giclee and the black Fenix nano laminate top version of the Karsten High Rise Dining Table for a creative space that balances visual richness with functional inspiration. “Imagine a home with carefully curated finishes and furniture choices – art that tells a thousand stories – while being eclectic, versatile, and cozy.”
The Creative may also find inspiration in the Arnold Hi-Low Desk with its amply sized, height-adjustable work surface allowing them to spread out materials and let ideas take flight. Or, you may prefer using the elegant and sturdy Stiletto Shelf System as a place to display books and art objects that inspire you. Because art needs light, a Creative will likely enjoy the Tilly LED Floor Lamp, which lets them adjust its brightness, height, and angle to achieve the perfect illumination for their projects. When it's time to seek comfort and rejuvenation, Thompson recommends the Ardea Sofa in calming ocean blue, or the Trojan Coffee Table. Available in four finishes, the Trojan offers a place to set a beverage – and its castors let it be wheeled aside for movement-based creative practices once inspiration strikes again.
