Among a coterie of international designers and brands showcased at Copenhagen’s annual fair, 3days of Design, simple solutions yield massive results across designs unified by soft lines and light hues. From minimalist light fixtures to colorful textiles, nine standout pieces embody innovation across typology and form.
Cord Collection from LAYERED and Massproductions
In partnership with Massproductions, LAYERED unveils four handwoven wool rugs detailed with stripes integrated into the warp. Architectural and tactile, the design’s textural dimensions are felt underfoot while warmly imbuing interiors with natural tones and bold accents across four colorways.
Numbra from &Tradition
Japanese designer Teruhiro Yanagihara crafts an architectural gesture balancing illumination with atmosphere in a new lighting collaboration with &Tradition. Spanning a pendant and a portable lamp, Numbra explores a fascination with the structures and straight lines quietly shaping our surroundings. Equipped with adjustable intensity, Numbra embodies soft ambiguity with a simple linear silhouette composed of lacquered oak panels and tumbled aluminum fixtures.
Timothy from Stellar Works
Yabu Pushelberg strips back form to an essential framework in Stellar Works’ Timothy collection. Comprising a dining chair and dining table, the collection dovetails refinement with reduction as structure and joinery stand in for traditional ornamentation. Solid wooden structures tout a tailored profile and T-shaped geometry offset by a motif of rounded forms. Both pieces are available in oak and walnut finishes as well.
Colette from Tekla
Antique Swedish design receives a modern upgrade courtesy of Tekla. Adorned with colors sourced from within their archive, Tekla grows its Heirloom-inspired broderie anglaise collection with a series of patchwork quilts demonstrating craft and elevating humble design. Softly finished with a crisp stonewash and embroidered details inspired by vintage bed linens, the organic cotton bedding range also touts a threadcount of 200.
Orme from Kast
English bathroom brand Kast grows its expansive color palette with earthy hues to richly refine its sculptural concrete basins. Espresso imbues a deep, grounding brown reminiscent of timber, while Oat recalls sun-bleached stone or a weathered dune with a soft mineral tone. Olive rounds out the trio of new colors with a muted woodland shade redolent of lichen.
Lomme from Foster + Partners Industrial Design
Equipped with a sewing machine, Foster + Partners Industrial Design explores how design identities are shaped by the tools we use with Lomme. The new light comprises two sheets of flat-stitched paper to form a pendant hemisphere as well as an archway light in both floor and table formats. A single seam defines the fixture’s geometric fold, shaping light and creating structure.
Haus Dari from Hall Haus
Hall Haus unveils a new edition of its Haus Dari line conceived with more compact dimensions and contemporary living spaces in mind. Inspired by North African sadaris and Middle Eastern majis, the sleek sofa system supports a diverse range of lounging and socializing supported by a wood frame and foam wrapped in durable upholstery fabric.
FIELD STUDIES from Marc Phillips Rugs
For Marc Phillips Rugs, Los Angeles-based architect and designer Jamie Bush transforms aerial paintings of crop patterns into immersive rugs made of layered silk, wool, hemp, and allo. Varying pile heights evoke tactile landscapes inspired by the rhythms and textures of the natural world, elevating interior vignettes with narrative decoration.
Trisse from Fredericia
Originally designed for Fredericia by Nanna Ditzel in 1962, Trisse is reintroduced to punctuate contemporary interiors with a dash of Danish modernism. The versatile design retains its soft profile and balanced shape as its singular flexibility is adapted into a stool, coffee table, café table, and bar table. Finished with no visible mechanisms, the oak fixture is available in a range of sizes as well as oiled and smoked finishes.
