Arthur Rottier is a designer and product developer based in Arnhem, the Netherlands. His practice moves between commissioned work and self–initiated projects, driven by an interest in how objects can be conceived and produced locally using contemporary means. The work is defined by advanced, computer–controlled engineering and production methods, careful finishing, and a restrained approach to form. Durability is central: materials are chosen for wear resistance, constructions are clear and legible, and connections are simple. Affordability is considered part of the design challenge. At the core of the practice lies the belief that beauty is essential to sustainability. Objects that are valued are cared for, and what is cared for lasts.

At MACA Museum, Arthur Rottier presents his complete furniture collection during 3daysofdesign. Tables, benches, cabinets, storage pieces, seating, and accessories are shown as one coherent body of work, developed from a shared material language. The collection is defined by novel production techniques, new materials, and experimental finishes. Visitors are invited to experience the furniture firsthand and to explore objects designed to be used, tested, and lived with.

David Valner has a background in glass design, sculpture, fine arts, and interactive media. David has grown up in a glassmaker family, in the midst of a swarm of traditional artisans–glass lovers, feeling and watching  the physical and metaphorical fire of creation. At the centre of his current approach to glass stands respect for the material as an originally free and fluid mass. Endlessly inspired by nature, he creates collections of objects in which each item is an original and defects are embraced as deeply meaningful and inspirational testimonies to artisan glass making as opposed to mass production.

Exakt MFG is a brand combining artisanry and state of the art industrial technology. The design principle is based on a pursuit of beauty and the tools are reduction, practicality and longevity. Every piece is designed and manufactured in-house in southern Sweden, drawing on decades of making high-end bespoke furniture and kitchens. No external factories, no gap between intention and execution. The same hands follow each object from first sketch to finished surface. Beautiful objects are resolved objects — every element present because it earns its place, nothing added to compensate for what isn't working underneath.

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.
