Embassy of France
Cover image missing

The French Embassy in Denmark is located in the Thott Palace, a remarkable 17th century historical building on Kongens Nytorv, in the heart of Copenhagen. The palace has housed the embassy for a century, and has since its origins been a symbol of the strong ties between France and Denmark. All year round, the Embassy opens its doors to the public on the occasion of various cultural events (exhibitions, conferences, concerts), and has showcased French designers as part of 3daysofdesign every year since the festival began. Institut français is the French cultural center in Denmark, and also functions as the French Embassy's cultural department. The institute's mission is to promote French culture, language and ideas to the Danish public.

During 3daysofdesign, the French Embassy in Denmark opens its beautiful historical reception rooms and invites you to immerse yourself into the dynamism and diversity of the new French design scene. The central piece of the exhibition is Arnaud Lapierre’s elegant bench "Rondin", prototyped by Le Mobilier National. It also features a large selection of pieces (furniture, textiles, tableware) created by young designers from some of France’s top design schools, grouped within the "Campus Mode Métiers d'Art & Design". A set of delicate ceramics from Manufacture nationale de Sèvres and Victor Cadène’s remarkable tapestry "Capriccio" from Manufacture Robert Four complete the ensemble.

AOT is a small family–run design company based in Copenhagen. Driven by challenging materials, they aim to liberate these materials from what is expected of them. Inventing new hand–made processes is a core element of their practice where doing things the conventionally 'wrong' way, has proved to be ideal for creating things that are both original and classic. Things that are easy to read yet easy on the eye! AOT is both a design studio and a production house and everything they produce is made in Denmark — either in–house or with carefully sourced producers. This is a key part of AOT, as it enables their insistence and audacity to create things that are hand-made in Denmark and still affordable.
