After more than two years of cancellations and postponements, design events are back in force, and last week I headed over to Copenhagen for its annual 3 Days of Design festival.

Home tour | Soft minimalism on a Copenhagen waterfront
Today we're heading over to Copenhagen for a peek inside a family home that's just undergone a top-to-bottom transformation thanks to the ever-inspiring team at Norm Architects.
