As one of the leading curatorial platforms for contemporary collectible design, ADORNO presents cross-cultural collections by independent designers. Focused on craftsmanship, authenticity, and material exploration, Adorno offers global access to one-of-a-kind works that reflect identity, narrative, and place. Through curated exhibitions and direct-to-collector sales, the platform fosters deeper engagement with design as a cultural practice.

Rooted in themes of authenticity and the power of self–expression, Persona invites visitors on a journey through three interconnected rooms —The Perfectionist, The Eccentric, and The Romantic — each embodying a distinct facet of human identity. Through spatial storytelling, multi–sensory elements, and material expression, the exhibition delves into how design can mirror the emotional and psychological complexity of the self. More than an exhibition, Persona is an experimental mise en scène unfolding across an entire exhibition. With this show Adorno aims to reflect the ever–shifting, multifaceted nature of selfhood, brought to life through the lens of collectible design.

Objects May Vary is an cross–disciplinary collaborative exhibition platform dedicated to experimental design . It invites independent and emerging designers to respond to a single object typology, using it as a starting point rather than a fixed brief. The platform is founded on the belief that typologies are not limitations but generative frameworks: recurring forms that, when questioned, open space for new ideas, materials, and approaches.

prado believes a home should become a place where functionality disappears and only the experience of the space remains. prado provides advanced solutions for home technology such as light and ventilation, quietly disappearing into architecture to bring calm to the spaces we live in. Founded in 2020, prado removes the visual noise from living spaces, leaving only what matters. The laboratory brings together prado's four maisons, united by the belief that the future of homes is not defined by more technology, but by better integration. Vervloet has been mastering the craft of architectural hardware since 1905. Atelier Luxus brings the same standard to switches and sockets, while rond extends the prado philosophy to the wall itself.

Established in 2025, FIRPON's first endeavour is to bring the light back to the somewhat mythical Filosof Lamp, created by the notorious architect Lars-Erik Ejlers (1948–2024). Lars-Erik Ejlers carried the lamp with him wherever he went, from the bar at Hotel D’Angleterre to Holstein Bodega, turning Copenhagen’s nightlife into his personal showroom. To own a Filosof Lamp was to own a piece of a story, as it was often purchased directly from him during a late-night visit to a city bar, making it both rare and iconic. FRIPON now carries his vision forward, bringing the Filosof Lamp back to shine in modern spaces.
