Linie Design
Established in 1980 with the mission of creating quality, Danish-designed rugs, Linie Design is now one of the largest developers of handmade rugs in Europe and sold in over 70 countries worldwide, including its own brand store in Copenhagen. Originally built on collaborations with influential female weavers, today the talented team of designers is led by Urd Moll Gundermann as Head of Design, with all designs handmade in India by artisan craftsmen using time-honoured weaving and knotting techniques. All rugs are made with natural, certified materials where possible, complying with relevant European legislation and global associations that protect the environment and enable responsible sourcing, careful monitoring and transparent production.
Watertopia, Linie Design’s exhibition for this year’s 3daysofdesign, combines the creative possibilities offered by traditional rug craftmanship with a dream-like underwater world. Head of Design, Urd Moll Gundermann’s intricately hand-drawn deep-sea dwellers are imaginatively transformed into a compelling woven narrative. Using a myriad of structures, colours and forms to express subtle tonal interplays and tactile contrasts, the vibrant organic shapes and mother-of-pearl nuances are brought to life in the rugs. The complex compositions challenge traditional techniques, pushing the potential of rug artistry to new heights that invite curiosity and immersion, making it a unique woven underwater dreamscape experience not to be missed.
3daysofdesign is an exclusive event that's inclusive of everyone. Where the press, content creators, buyers, designers, architects and design enthusiasts, as well as the general public, are invited to experience new concepts from our curated selection of brands from Denmark and elsewhere around the world.
Contact UsSince its inception in 2013, Signe Byrdal Terenziani has facilitated the growth of the design community in her role as Managing Director. It all began as a small design event held in an old warehouse in Nordhavn, a harbour area overlooking Copenhagen’s waterfront. Four Danish brands launched the event as a joint initiative: Montana, Erik Jørgensen (now owned by Fredericia Furniture), Anker & Co, and Kvadrat. At that time, Copenhagen lacked a proper design festival, since the previous annual furniture fair at Bella Center closed down some years before.
Today, the 3daysofdesign festival extends to the entire city of Copenhagen and is considered the most significant annual design festival in Scandinavia and Northern Europe.
Each year since its inception, 3daysofdesign has grown in popularity exponentially. In 2024, over 400 brands exhibited at the festival, where over 45.000 visitors could choose from as many as 500 events to attend in various design districts across Copenhagen, such as design talks, product launches, networking, etc.
3daysofdesign takes place every year in Copenhagen mainly in showrooms and galleries during June, Wednesday to Friday. In 2025 the festival will be held from 18 — 20 June 2025.
Pack your bags, book a hotel and come to Copenhagen! 3daysofdesign is open to the general public and everyone is invited to visit the showrooms, exhibitions, workshops and design talks. All events are free of charge.
