How to get Peggy Gou’s laidback Berlin apartment

The wonkier the better. That’s the charm of this vase. Gou’s apartment is filled with little sculptures and trinkets. Made using air-dry clay then hand painted with a purposefully naive finish, whether it’s in a minimal or maximal setting, this vase will add instant personality and charm to any space.

The first thing guests see as they enter Peggy Gou’s apartment is a giant smiley light installation made by artist and friend Wonwoo Lee. Add a touch of the same happy energy to your own space with Wavey Casa’s smiley face rug.

Gou’s apartment is brimming with books and magazines. Populate your shelves with The New Cannabis Culture. This stylish book explores how weed has grown into a good-looking business.

Beautifully crafted into a rustic, textured weave, the waffle cotton cushion cover is made from 100% cotton, sustainably sourced in partnership with the Better Cotton Initiative.

Candles sit among the books and magazines on the coffee table in Gou’s living room. Infuse your space with Arborealist: an intense and moody blend of woods and smoky greens. This vegetable wax candle with lead-free wick has approx 40 hours burn time.
