Having a fantastic place to work is essential to find the best inspiration, which is why the [studio of danish artist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alan-prekop-studio) [Tenka Gammelgaard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burgatoi) is a work of art in its own right. Decorated with opaque tones such as grey, black and white, this room was featured in the October issue of [Elle Decoration UK](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pantone-partnered).

At first sight, the space looks like an explosion of paint; however, the salon is carefully organized and adorned. With multiple black drips on the white floor, paintbrushes embellished with black and white strips and a collection of portraits and paintings hanging from a shelf, this workshop is a tidy anarchy of art: a celebration of creation.

The Tenka Gammelgaard studio only has a few sparks of yellow, which represent the warmth of the sun and the faith of the artist.
