Objective Studies is a newly established digital platform introducing distinctive objects and furniture. Through the uncompromising study and appreciation of craft, materials, composition, and context, they curate and feature collections exclusively a few times a year. Their mission is to bring equity into the design industry, nurturing new talent by presenting exceptional and innovative works by committing to fostering a supportive environment for designers, helping to connect their craft with the right audiences. They aim to become a launching platform for emerging talent, be the preferred marketplace for design enthusiasts, and a distinctive sourcing archive for industry professionals.

The Danish conception of modern life, specifically the way of creating livable spaces, offers a great deal to today‘s designers. The close relationship with nature, the thoughtful and careful use of natural materials or spaces, and the allowance of flexible uses – are just some of the points that seem more pertinent to our contemporary context than ever. The Korshage house, built in 1960 by Erik Korshagen on the north coast of Denmark, serves as a prime example. Using it as a spatial and conceptual link, an international group of designers will showcase their contemporary furniture in the spirit of the historic site. In this way, the exhibition will link Danish home culture and its influence on today‘s global design landscape.

Copenhagen based Icelandic designer Dögg Guðmundsdóttir creates nature inspired products with emotional appeal and a distinctive touch of Nordic originality. Many of her designs are based on foundational structures or pieces of art, while others form part of a collection. For this exhibition, nature is not merely an inspiration but an integral part of the essence of the works and of the installation, created in collaboration with Dýpi—an ocean paint made from calcareous algae harvested in Iceland. Dýpi was nominated for the Icelandic Design Awards 2025 for its product that is exceptionally breathable, environmentally friendly, plastic–free, and an innovative use of abundant natural materials.

Edin and Lina Kjellvertz launched Dusty Deco as a platform for curating vintage furniture, interior accessories and art. After having traveled the world and browsing flea markets for the most unique pieces, their home and storages quickly filled up to the brim with rare designs. Ten years later, Edin and Lina began drafting a new chapter in the brand’s history when closing the doors to its vintage business, instead launching their own collection of furniture, rugs and details. Today, Dusty Deco is a contemporary design brand, creating pieces with just as much storytelling, originality and passion for craftsmanship as the vintage finds that originally inspired the couple to start their company.

Since its founding in 2019, RYE has pursued a considered approach to bedroom design. Drawing on historical references and analogue traditions, the brand's focus is not on what a bed can do, but on what a bed should be—a quiet refuge that frames sleep through an emphasis on slowness, sculptural silhouettes, and tactile depth. Each piece is produced at RYE's own manufacturing facilities in the Danish Lake Highlands, where skilled craftspeople work with a range of locally sourced materials, to create a collection of bedroom furniture, mattresses and pillows.
