BorisBerlin/Design is a Danish design studio that has made a significant impact on the Scandinavian design scene over the past 40 years, specialising in furniture, product, exhibition, and graphic design. Founded by Boris Berlin, both independently and as part of Komplot Design and later Iskos—Berlin, the studio has created iconic design pieces in collaboration with a range of Danish and international brands, including GUBI, HAY, MUUTO, Fritz Hansen, Eva Solo, and many more. In partnership with Designmuseum Danmark, BorisBerlin/Design has also contributed to several permanent exhibitions, including Danish Chair—an International Affair, Little Table, Cover Thyself!, Frankfurter Küche, and Kaare Klint.

The book 'Boris Berlin — Dialogues on Form' will be launched at the venue during 3daysofdesign. Designed by Rasmus Koch (DK) and published by Arnoldsche Verlagsanstalt (DE), it features texts by eight art and design historians, architects, and designers. As part of a dialogue, each contributor selected an object from Boris Berlin's design practice, collectively curating the exhibition. The installation will present these objects, with each curator explaining their choice at the exhibition's opening. Contributors include David Geckeler (DE), Jasper Morrison (UK), Deyan Sudjic (UK), Florian Hufnagl (DE), Marie-Louise Høstbo (DK), Christian Holmsted Olesen (DK), Mirjam Gelfer–Jørgensen (DK), and Vibeke P. Gether (DK).

Embracing an experimental approach, the project challenges conventional notions of industrial production and explores new dialogues between sheet metal and design. The name "EETAL" originates from "SHEET METAL." It combines "EET" from "SHEET" and "TAL" from "METAL," forming a coined term that symbolises the new form of sheet metal they strive to create.

Based in India, the studio is rooted in ancient wisdom, where sustainability and care are integral to everyday living. Working closely with local artisans and locally sourced wood, the furniture draws from South Asian traditions of sitting and spatial setting. Naturally seasoned, aged trees—crafted without nails or screws—form the core language of the work. A life–centred approach ensures no harmful disruptors enter the environment, protecting everyone from maker to end user. Continually pushing the boundaries of furniture typology, the studio explores Indian minimalism while revisiting traditional skills through a contemporary lens, creating pieces that hold space and life in equal measure.

NORDICMODERN presents the woven rugs of Danish textile artist Vibeke Klint (1927–2019), reissued in collaboration with her family. Klint approached textiles as part of the interior - working with proportion, rhythm and colour to create calm foundations rather than décor. Her rugs were made to be lived with and walked on, and to age naturally over time. All rugs are handwoven using her original designs and techniques, continuing a Danish modern textile tradition in a contemporary context. During 3daysofdesign the collection is shown in a spatial setting where material and colour can be experienced up close. Vibeke Klint's rugs can modernise a traditional room and add character and balance to a minimalist interior.
