COMMON GROUND Symposium x IKEA

This year, 3daysofdesign are collaborating with IKEA to create COMMON GROUND Symposium - a space for dreaming bold dreams for our future. The planet needs space to rest and regenerate for future generations. So do we. Visitors are invited into a dreamy playground at Food Studio in District Refshaleøen, where slowness and time for reflection is a priority, and are dared to dream. Whether you’re a sustainability expert, policy maker, designer, architect or just interested in how design can be a force for change.

COMMON GROUND Symposium is an exchange of perspectives serving as a platform during 3daysofdesign where experts, innovators, and designers meet to explore the intersections of sustainability, materials, and circular design principles. Moderated by Veronica D’Souza, you will meet Luca Nichetto, Anupama Kundoo, Akanksha Deo Sharma, Alfredo Häberli, Michael Anastassiades, Ineke Hans, Liza Chong, Bonnie Hvillum, Tej Chauhan, Larry Botchway, Steffen Kallehauge, Marcus Arvonen, Maria Vinka, Philippe Brocart, and Anker Bak. Join us as we unite the design community to envision a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable future. All sessions are free, but require registration. Book your free ticket now.

Furniture is understood as a concept with a will of its own, conveying a distinct expression. Källemo’s ambition is to create objects that endure over time— aesthetically, artistically, physically and metaphysically. As founder Sven Lundh once stated, “An object shall stand the wear of the eye,” recognising that visual endurance is the most demanding test. Källemo collaborates with designers and artists who value quality beyond trends, while possessing the ability to surprise, challenge and contribute strong personal expressions. The brand places equal trust in the precision of cutting–edge technology and in the hand that adds the final, personal and almost magical touch.

Selected BySecher is part of Gallery Secher Fine Art & Design, which has specialised in fine art, design and furniture classics since 2002. Everything at Secher in Copenhagen reflects a deep passion for, and knowledge of, classic Danish design and craftsmanship.

Tolv is a furniture brand founded on the principle that effective design communicates softly yet clearly, crafting pieces that embody honesty—where no element is superfluous, and every detail serves a purpose. Making its European debut this year at 3daysofdesign, the brand embraces simplicity, intentional proportions, and a respectful use of natural materials, striving to achieve maximum impact with minimal means. At its essence, Tolv is dedicated to creating furniture that feels complete—visually, practically, and emotionally—collaborating with designers who share this philosophy. Rather than following fleeting trends or pursuing novelty, Tolv aims to produce timeless objects that maintain their relevance and strength over the years.
