Brittany Watson Jepsen

Brittany Watson Jepsen here. I grew up teething on the seaweed of Southern California though I preferred reading and creating in the great indoors. My mom’s favorite quote was “a creative mess is better than tidy idleness” and so my childhood was spent creating art work, music, and yes, lots of messes. On my way to becoming a museum curator I was haunted by those creative messes and enrolled in permanent “creative mess status” otherwise known as a master’s in interior design at the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, DC. I graduated in 2010 after spending summers working with professional creative messers including Jonathan Adler and Celerie Kemble in NYC. There I designed products for Tiffany and Co., Schumacher, and Dempsey and Carroll and helped create beautiful interiors for fancy schmancy penthouses. The summer of 2009 I studied textile design and wrote for design*sponge. I married Paul in September of 2011 and moved back to Copenhagen. I can currently be found staring in front of a computer screen blogging for this and that and trying to keep up with friends and family, playing with the University of Copenhagen orchestra, attempting to pronounce "rød brød" accurately (trust me, it's just as weird to pronounce as it looks), and exploring this wonderful city.
