HANDVÄRK refers to the Old Nordic "hǫndverk" meaning craftsmanship. This heritage is emphasised through a appreciation for simple living and the use of honest materials. In essence HANDVÄRK FURNITURE believes great design should be two things: aesthetic and functional.

Experience the essence of playfulness and spatial exploration at HANDVÄRK FURNITURE's exhibit during this year's 3daysofdesign. Delve into a vibrant universe where minimalistic silhouettes and authentic materials converge, offering a splendid blend of our inner child's whimsy and the pragmatic decisions of adulthood. HANDVÄRK FURNITURE seamlessly integrates both aspects into its designs, and this year marks the debut of its first outdoor collection.

Claudia Pignatale, curator and Creative Director of Secondome, has called together 4 Italian design brands, two self-producing, an artist, and a Flower Designer to bring to life this adventure where Italian design and savoir-faire will be the protagonists.
 
Ethimo, Fenix, Moroso, and Secondome are four Italian Companies united by a common passion for design, craftsmanship, and Made in Italy.
 
They will present a selection of iconic pieces inside the residence that will tell the story of each brand.

For over 30 years, Desalto has nurtured a concept of aesthetically sophisticated products rooted in continuous technical and technological research aimed at enhanced functionality. With three decades of activity, Desalto stands as both a youthful and time-honoured brand—a dynamic spirit that seamlessly blends iconic seating and complements, resembling graphic forms sketched in the air, with tables as versatile as daily life itself. The narrative began in 1990 when the four Orsenigo brothers, heirs to a family metalworking business, envisioned a company more attuned to contemporary trends. They sought collaboration with designers, fostering diverse perspectives that align with the same corporate philosophy centred on fundamental values of harmony and elegance.

THE UPCYCL is a B2B platform that enables what is waste for one company to become valuable resources for another.

By connecting industries with industrial waste materials and companies that need them, THE UPCYCL creates circular possibilities. It fosters a tight-knit community where everyone shares surplus materials, maximizing the value of existing resources. In doing so, THE UPCYCL community reduces waste and virgin material consumption.

All THE UPCYCL materials, referred to as New Waste materials, are uniform and flow continuously, ensuring that, when matched, the stream of New Waste materials keeps flowing. This enables companies to rely on a circular supply chain or turn industrial waste into a source of circular revenue.

Since 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.

Each year since its inception, 3daysofdesign has grown in popularity exponentially. In 2023, over 250 brands exhibited at the festival, where visitors could choose from as many as 500 events to attend in various design districts across Copenhagen, such as design talks, networking events, etc.

3daysofdesign takes place every year in Copenhagen mainly during the second week of June from Wednesday to Friday. In 2024 the festival will be held from 12 - 14 June.
