Danish Architecture Center (DAC) is an international cultural attraction for everyone who wants to experience and understand how architecture and design create the framework for our lives. DAC is located in BLOX by Copenhagen’s inner harbour and part of the city’s Cultural District. Through exhibitions, tours, events, and education, DAC inspires, educates, and engages visitors. Sustainability is at the core of DACs mission, reflected in its status as a certified Green Attraction. Discover the latest trends in architecture and design at DAC Design Shop, where every product is carefully selected with sustainability in mind. DAC Café prioritises organic ingredients, local produce, and animal welfare while actively minimising food waste.

During 3daysofdesign, DAC presents Meet Me Here, an exhibition by Spacon. The installation explores how design and architecture shape our encounters—with each other, ourselves, and our surroundings. In a world where digital connections replace physical presence, Meet Me Here creates a space for real, unexpected moments. The Gallery Stairs at DAC becomes a living installation where movement and interaction shift perspectives. Every action leaves a mark—on spaces, people, and the environment. Meet Me Here invites visitors to rediscover presence and explore how we shape the world around us.
