In this month’s magazine, we’re bringing you properties in Oslo that provide not just accommodation, but also the chance to sample a different lifestyle.
The properties we present below are situated in culturally rich neighbourhoods with plenty of things to see and do. In addition, each element of these properties from their high-end artwork down to their luxury toiletries has been carefully selected and curated to inject Scandinavian highlights into your stay. And you have the opportunity to buy anything you see, if you’d like to bring home a keepsake of your Scandinavian design adventure!
Artistic & Elegant with views of the Munch Museum
Situated in the architecturally diverse Bjørvika neighbourhood, this apartment overlooks nearby Oslofjord and the Munch Museum from its seventh-floor elevation. With its minimalist interior and soothing colour palette, you can enjoy the little ‘pops’ of darker elements in its décor. High artistic touches are all around the property, from pieces by the Norwegian artist Kjell Nupen to designer lighting installations. And in the neighbourhood you’ll find many trendy bars and restaurants to enjoy, as well as the city’s Opera House.
Features:
- 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
- Balcony with views towards the Oslofjord
- Heated floors
- Bathroom products by Sprekenhus

Unique & Stylish Waterfront Property
Embrace the marine nature of the Bjørvika neighbourhood, where the property is situated. As well as being an architectural hotspot, Bjørvika is Oslo’s revitalised port district with a renovated waterfront and well-established cultural scene. In Little Venice you’ll feel this sense of location – the apartment sits almost on top of the waters of the Oslofjord, which is channelled in between the buildings so that it streams right up to your outdoor terrace. The interior is designed with a calm colour palette with injections of marine greens and blues in the furniture and décor, and you will find pieces by Serbian artist Marina Abramovic and furniture by designer brands, interspersed around the property.
Features:
- 1.5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
- Terrace next to canals with the waters of Oslofjord
- Heated floors
- Bathroom products by Sprekenhus
- Linens and robes by Rivolta
Elegant Apartment with Skyline Views
This elegant apartment is located in the Frogner neighbourhood, an elegant borough of Oslo with many upmarket restaurants, art galleries and antiques dealers. You can enjoy stylish, modern design with inventive touches like mushroom-shaped stool seating, tactile fabrics and artistically designed lighting. The neutral colour palette takes a back seat to the extraordinary views you get from the panoramic windows and the backyard of the property – overlooking the skyline of the residential neighbourhood.
Features:
- 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
- Peaceful and green backyard
- Access to building’s wellness centre, gym, spa and multiple restaurants and bars

Bright & Contemporary City Home
Also situated in the Frogner neighbourhood.

At this modern and bright house, you can enjoy the joining together of an architect-designed townhouse with contemporary décor and furnishings. Wood, brick and glass take a front seat here, as do the furnishings which mix angular shapes with rounded-edges, evocative of modern design. The house is also filled with pieces by local Norwegian artists.
Features:
- 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms
