“The interior psychologist” (Finansavisen, Oslo Norwegia 2018)

Simply intellectual. This is how one could define the timeless style of interior designer Anne Herzog, Scandinavian from Oslo with Swiss roots. Living and working in Italy for more than 30 years.

She has managed to mix her original spirits with the Mediterranean style and make them converge magnificently in producing very warm, cosy interiors, yet strong, and linear as well, where a blend of antique and contemporary furnishings and objects meet in a unusually creative manner.

Special attention is given towards the recycling of abandoned objects and materials that are brought to new .

Solutions studied by her manage to harmonise perfectly with the original character of the home she is applied to, whether a Villa in the Tuscan Hills, a penthouse overlooking the Mediterranean Sea or a flat in downtown Copenhagen.

An invisible thread follows her subtly joyous and energetic approach with an impeccable attention down to the finest minute detail, where wise and inspired use of different materials blend perfectly playing different parts whether old wood and steel, or stone and crystal rock or perhaps plastic and resin.

A Mediterranean touch can soon be detected in the early stages of her work that subsequently blossoms into a superb contemporary home but where a strong artisan and hand crafted feeling can be immediately detected.

And this is perhaps more possible to achieve from her adopted city, Florence, that has been early cradle to the best hand crafts and has inspired artisan excellence for centuries.
