A Perfect Blend of Land and Sea

Explore the hills, high trees, and scenic coastlines where nature meets adventure – the perfect backdrop for C'MON STUDIO’s outdoor photoshoot

Stenderup Forest and the Nature of Kolding Fjord and Lillebælt

Nestled in the heart of Southern Denmark, Stenderup Forest is a natural treasure that offers a serene escape into nature, with its ancient woodlands and proximity to the breathtaking Kolding Fjord and the Lillebælt strait. Whether you're a passionate hiker, nature enthusiast, or simply looking for a peaceful retreat, this region has an abundance to offer, from rich biodiversity to scenic views that captivate the soul.
C'MON STUDIO chose this spectacular setting for our first outdoor photoshoot, taking full advantage of the landscape's hills, towering trees, and stunning coastline views. Let’s dive into what makes this area so special and the top five highlights to explore.
 
1. Stenderup Forest: A Living History
Stenderup Forest, located just south of Kolding, is a diverse woodland stretching over rolling hills along the shore. It’s perfect for outdoor lovers, with trails that lead through dense, ancient woods, opening up to scenic water views. Many of these pathways were once used by Danish kings on hunting expeditions, and the majestic oak, beech, and pine trees provide a peaceful, timeless atmosphere.
C'MON STUDIO found the forest’s towering trees an inspiring backdrop for our shoot, framing our designs with the rich textures of the natural world.
 
2. Kolding Fjord: A Scenic Coastal Escape
Bordering Stenderup Forest, Kolding Fjord’s calm waters make it ideal for kayaking, sailing, or simply enjoying a picnic with a view. The fjord’s peaceful atmosphere, framed by green hills and dotted with boats, creates a calming retreat. Visitors can spot porpoises swimming or enjoy the abundant birdlife.
For our photoshoot, the fjord provided an idyllic contrast to the forest, its serene waters reflecting the gentle light and enhancing the natural beauty of our designs.
 
3. Lillebælt: The Narrow Strait of Wonder
Lillebælt, a narrow strait between Jutland and Funen, is famous for its rich marine life, including playful harbor porpoises. The strait’s fast-flowing currents also make it a top destination for diving and marine exploration, with shipwrecks and reefs to discover.
While we stayed on land for the photoshoot, the scenic views over Lillebælt, with bridges and endless horizons, gave our team an inspiring sense of Denmark’s maritime history and natural beauty.
 
4. The Hills and Trails
One of the main reasons C'MON STUDIO chose Stenderup Forest for our photoshoot was the dramatic terrain. The rolling hills create dynamic settings, with elevation changes offering different perspectives and moods. The trails meander through the landscape, providing a variety of environments, from shaded woods to sunny hilltops.
The rugged terrain played a key role in showcasing the versatility and durability of our activewear, designed for both urban adventures and outdoor exploration.
 
5. Coastline Scenic Views
Perhaps the most striking feature of the Stenderup Forest area is the stunning coastline that hugs Kolding Fjord. The high vantage points in the forest give visitors expansive views over the fjord, with the water sparkling below and the sky stretching endlessly above. The natural beauty of the coastline is a breathtaking reminder of Denmark’s close relationship with the sea.
For our outdoor shoot, the coastline was an essential element, serving as both an awe-inspiring backdrop and a natural complement to our collection's focus on adventure and exploration.
A Perfect Blend of Land and Sea
The combination of Stenderup Forest, Kolding Fjord, and Lillebælt creates a landscape where land and sea coexist in perfect harmony. Whether you're exploring the deep, tranquil forests, gazing out across the shimmering waters of the fjord, or venturing into the maritime wonders of Lillebælt, you’ll find a sense of peace and connection to nature that is hard to find elsewhere.
Visitors can enjoy year-round outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, birdwatching, fishing, and kayaking. The timeless beauty of the area, as C'MON STUDIO experienced firsthand, provides an inspiring setting for adventures and captures the essence of the Danish wilderness.

Futuristic blends with nature

Discover the fusion of Urban Life and Seaside Serenity in Copenhagen Nordhavn, Denmark.

Copenhagen Nordhavn is a perfect example of how urban development can beautifully integrate with natural surroundings. Once an industrial area, this modern district has been transformed into a vibrant community where sleek architecture meets open spaces, canals, and the calming vibe from the sea.

Walking through Nordhavn, you’re struck by the balance: people navigating their fast-paced city lives while enjoying easy access to the outdoors, fostering a sense of well-being and connection to nature.

The urban design in Nordhavn was built with this harmony in mind. Its smart infrastructure not only supports a sustainable way of life but also promotes an active lifestyle. You’re never far from a serene waterfront, where joggers, cyclists, and families can be seen taking advantage of the fresh air. This unique synergy between city living and the outdoors is a heaven for those who crave a balanced lifestyle - a blend of bustling city vibes and peaceful seaside moments. 

This backdrop perfectly mirrors the vision of C'MON STUDIO activewear, which was designed to complement this type of environment.

Our first photoshoot took place here for a reason: Copenhagen Nordhavn truly paints the picture of how urban life connects with outdoor adventures. Whether you’re running along the scenic waterfront, biking through the streets, or practicing yoga on a rooftop, C'MON STUDIO activewear offers the perfect blend of style, comfort, and performance.
Designed to support an active lifestyle in any setting, but Nordhavn’s unique mix of urban and natural elements is where it truly shines.
The collection’s design reflects the clean, modern lines of the city while also offering the functionality needed for an active outdoor lifestyle.
