call it why it's a german photographer and the enemy paul cakes. and shades of grey visiting the green home in copenhagen. to be honest brings back memories for me it's about soap boxes already do small cars from the past calm matched with the ones fung been calling in makes it all began as a hobby but today he even makes money by building old thomas soap boxes custom us they look like old racing cars when we got a ferrari and bentley some of them even motorized not only are those love his classic creations. features that hark back to the olden days but this isn't a well preserved classic it's

a soap box replica built in twenty seventeen and the proud possession of sisters and color to hearts. fans after we quickly example that we as kids are allowed to drive a come out even if it's a small come. out and it's a lot of fun. i really should this i think it's great to you because it's fun and it's always a new experience so. that's. this soapbox even has a motor the girls to cedar is handmade and one of a kind it's a remake of the english 1930's the gander wrapping and it's pretty much their dad's dream car dad christiane is a big fan of classic cars and he's aiming at house on his passion to young and color time. mine all from his course i'm very hopeful and i take my girls to

classic car races at the nuremberg ring. sometimes they take part in rallies along with me and my wife on up all your time i'm optimistic that they'll make their father's hobby of their own. the two girls soon squabbled over this homage to the god he thirty five one of the most successful race cars of motor sport history so dad ordered a second old timer soap box to match his original nine hundred thirty eight bentley manufactured by the same person of course. these cars are basically built the same way the real ones were. an aluminum body on a wooden frame and the attention to detail and dedication to these cars is amazing . and this is the man who builds them hung. from people in southern germany his artistry might not make him rich but he doesn't mind it's all about the look in kids' eyes. when i see that makes me really happy because that's what the cars are

actually made for i mean i like driving a little too but when children drive and really have a great time that's the greatest joy for me. it all started in two thousand and twelve there was the soap box race in funk village he had been tinkering with cars since he was sixteen so he had no problem building his own racer. he didn't have the space to keep it so he sold it there was such an onslaught of buyers that he turned building soap boxes into a regular thing needed for i love any type of car from before world war two they're all beautiful and if i have no favorites i like all my cars the same he works as a foreign sales agent but he's made quite a name for himself with his classic soap box speedsters. didn't have a certain basic idea in my head and then i start building and it just happens. it develops itself on building it there's no fixed concept this is

a concept i know what the car is supposed to look like when it's done and then i make sure that's how it turns out. each of his soap boxes is one of a kind the base is always a wooden board fixed to a wooden frame then he makes the aluminum body which can take weeks sometimes months depending on the model with all this attention to detail doesn't it hurt to let go of his mobile masterpieces. yes every time. but the problem is i can't keep everything. you have to let it go sooner or later and. but maybe just one can stay frank bank completely rebuilt this classic car only the chassis and motor of the english one nine hundred thirty standard have remained. for custom husky design something extra special a soapbox to practice racing. the idea was really to get

a sense of the experience even indoors the car turned out beautifully for me but it doesn't have any wheels of course it runs on roller self but it really helps me practice for circus races. his daughters are still only ten and eleven years old and it'll be a while before they're racing for real. this is sad to see with the smaller cars it's more comfortable even if it's time to get hit there is just so much more room . and to be honest it depends on where the culture and i are having an argument when we're fighting i prefer riding alone and when we get along i like riding with her but. doesn't run five. if the two still have a soft spot for cars like their dad when they grow up remains to be seen right now it's looking highly likely. an unusual

a family in a former clinic let's find out more about the make over into this year makes. this classic brick house in a copenhagen suburb dates from one nine hundred fifty. almost a century later interior designers. transformed the ugly duckling into a beautiful swan. oh. into our house and go when i get there i would like to show you how we live well come inside follow me. the house features a nuanced palette of gray with the finding accents of black the designer created an ambience that is serene yet impressive. for a horn of mine color is more than a decorative element its emotional. colors is very important that the it take you like in

a journey it reminds you of places and it gives. imaginations of stories where you want to be you would like to and that's why there's no what colors here in this house only the ceilings this white. house on a man lives here with her husband two children and three dogs. the kitchen is the focal point for the entire family. the designer has built a career on designing kitchen islands for clients she wanted her own kitchen to be as beautiful as a dysfunctional it's a kitchen but it's not just the kitchen it's more than that because the granite here the table top is brushed so it has like a softness it's not polished and shiny small soft in the so face and it goes really well together with the cabinet so when you have made of wood and it's

goes from one troll to the other and when you push the door it comes. and it's electronic so it's practical it's beautiful but it's also functional. the house boasts four hundred square meters of living space on three floors but despite its rambling size it maintains an intimate air. space is important to the heart of man and they use every inch of it. your house your castle and you you. surround your things surround yourself with things that you enjoy and you make it cozy you know the danish word for which is causing this so i think that's a big part of the danish culture we still bring a lot of friends and family spec to our homes so we have to open up our homes and maybe that's why we really consider how we live with beautiful things not only beautiful things like shapes but also good quality danish people like good quality
