Furniture can powerfully influence the comfort, functionality and feel of your home – which is why it’s important to find a furniture store that speaks to you. A fixture of the Austin design scene since 1993, Copenhagen is a family-owned business that brings “a unique retail environment and curated selection of European contemporary furnishings to Austin,” in the words of Copenhagen President and CEO Jens Hansen. With Copenhagen’s re-located and expanded Austin showroom now open, it’s the ideal time to find a furniture store that feels like home to you.
Here are five things to look for when searching for a furniture retailer – and why Copenhagen might be your perfect fit.
An Aesthetic You Love
Consider retailers whose style you find beautiful, calming, and inspirational – and whose products you can envision becoming part of your daily life. If you’re drawn to the sleek elegance of modern and contemporary furniture, Copenhagen may be a great match.
“Our Danish heritage gave us a steppingstone into the modern Danish look and new European style that defines us,” Jens Hansen states. “We focus on the ‘less is more’ concept, creating clean, comfortable environments that relax body and mind.”
This passion for purveying functional furnishings shows through Copenhagen’s inclusion of renowned contemporary brands in its collection. Enjoy tech-forward bedroom and office furniture by BDI, timeless and versatile dining pieces by Skovby of Denmark, or luxurious statement pieces by Cattelan Italia.
Superior Quality
Meticulous craftsmanship and durability will ensure that you’ll enjoy your furniture for years to come. A commitment to quality drives Copenhagen to “source only the best products from around the world, at competitive prices,” according to Hansen.
Manufacturers chosen for the Copenhagen collection, like Stressless® of Norway, put care and consideration into every step of their design process. For instance, each Stressless® recliner has a base made from 32 layers of beechwood and an ergonomic frame topped with plush foam and premium leather. Indeed, it’s common for customers to get decades of good use from their Stressless® seating!
Engaging Variety
Consider which furniture stores carry a variety of products for different spaces, styles, and budgets – as well as which places keep you coming back to see what’s new. With Copenhagen’s new Austin store numbering over 30,000 sq ft, you’ll be dazzled by the range of furniture and accents offered for every room of the house. “What’s more,” adds Hansen, “our unique approach to product presentation places items in coordinated, room-like vignettes complete with art and accessories. This gives customers an idea of what the ‘total look’ could be in their home.”
Exemplary Service
Good customer service is essential to keep one coming back to a business. “Our caring, knowledgeable sales and design staff are truly interested in customers’ needs and wants,” Hansen emphasizes. “We’re not looking to just write sales tickets or upsell customers, but rather build long-term relationships with them.” Indeed, Copenhagen’s end-to-end service provides everything from interior design assistance and floorplanning help, to white- glove delivery, furniture repair, and more.
A Future- and Community-Oriented Mindset
Companies with staying power tend to continually evolve, staying relevant to the present, anticipating the future, and supporting their communities. “As our success grows, Copenhagen looks for ways to give back, most recently seen in our ‘5 for 5’ charity events for the Austin area food bank,” says Hansen. Over the past 3 years, Copenhagen’s food drives have raised $250,000 for local food banks across Texas and Arizona – including $10,000 in 2024 for the Central Texas Food Bank of Austin.
Additionally, Copenhagen has integrated Floorplanner software into its site, allowing customers to design virtual rooms and envision how products will look in their home. Pair this tech-savviness with the inclusion of sustainable brands like Stressless®, Skovby, and Luonto, and Copenhagen is on track to keep evolving with the times.

Braker Ln. or shop online at CopenhagenLiving.com. “We’d like to invite everyone to come test us out,” says Jens Hansen. “You won’t be disappointed.”
