Birgitte Due Madsen is a Copenhagen-based artist and designer working across furniture, objects, and sculptural form. Her practice centres on materiality, light, and aesthetics, exploring how structure and surface inform both function and perception. Working with materials such as gypsum, resin, wood stone, and concrete, she develops pieces through a process that moves from abstraction to precise realization. The work spans custom commissions, serial designs, and unique pieces, often produced in close dialogue with manufacturers. Defined by tactile textures, controlled colour, and a distinct geometric language, each object reflects a commitment to craftsmanship and a considered approach to form, material, and use.

Birgitte Due Madsen will be present in several exhibitions around the city including Objects of Desire and Danish Art Workshops. Main exhibition, Summer Nights, is a curated spatial installation presented during 3daysofdesign, located opposite Kongens Have. It explores the atmosphere of a Copenhagen summer night through material presence and spatial composition—as an interior in suspension, between rest and display, domesticity and abstraction—it offers a calm environment where objects are experienced through texture, weight, and spatial rhythm. Showing pieces: Plissé stools in warm Oregon pine and soft upholstery, cast–neon lighting, and marble Bellum vases, form a quiet constellation. Rooted in craftsmanship and material sensitivity.

For 3daysofdesign, Chylak presents a series of site–specific works in bobbin lace, developed for the Copenhagen flagship store Baum und Pferdgarten. Rooted in a shared cultural narrative between Copenhagen and Warsaw, the works draw on the story of Bertel Thorvaldsen’s monument to Józef Poniatowski and its journey across time and place. At the centre of the exhibition is the horse motif, reinterpreted through delicate lace into a light, almost transparent structure bridging history, craftsmanship, and contemporary fashion. Installed in dialogue with the space, the works form a subtle “lace entrance,” creating a layered, immersive environment.

The experimental approach to design emphasises a dialogue between digital precision and material intuition, bridging technology with craftsmanship.
