Iteration Collective is a newly established design collective of young designers. The community has emerged from a shared desire to create and challenge each other, pushing creative boundaries to enhance their skills as designers. Through close collaboration, members tackle new design challenges, each producing original works based on a shared design brief with defined constraints and objectives. Recognising the importance of responsible design practices, the group is dedicated to exploring new approaches, challenging conventional norms in furniture design, and paving the way for more eco-conscious solutions. Iteration Collective hope to inspire future generations of designers and contribute to the dialogue surrounding design and sustainability.

Lys Fremtid/Bright Future invites you to explore the future of sustainable lighting. Iteration Collective presents 13 unique lamp designs created specifically for this exhibition. Based on a shared design brief shaped by current EU lighting regulations, members of Iteration Collective have been challenged to treat requirements such as reparability and circularity as creative constraints rather than limitations. All lamps are designed for disassembly and repair, and each design incorporates at least one Danish natural material, revealing the beauty and potential of local resources while questioning global material dependency. Together, the works let visitors experience new ways of designing and imagining light in a resource–conscious future.

Marrimor objects are made to be as delightful as they are purposeful, a touch provocative too. Each piece comes into being by way of a relentlessly collaborative process, one that balances refinement with irreverence. Tanja Breadner and Lauren Bugliarisi both shoot for the moon, creatively speaking, albeit from reverse angles, drawing on different histories. Tanja brings Swiss sensibilities to the platonic design partnership, and Lauren an East Coast drive. They create through playful debate, continually pushing their respective boundaries to reach that Goldilocks–like zenith between too little and too much. They know they’ve landed as soon as they agree.
