Bretz combines two seemingly opposing yet fundamental desires in life: on one hand, its creations take you on fantastic journeys filled with adventure and freedom; on the other hand, they envelop you, providing a sense of safety and security. This vision comes to life in the brand’s workshop, where Bretz boldly pushes forward with a pioneering spirit, while also drawing on over a century of German upholstery tradition. Born from a passion for the unexpected and refined by sophisticated production techniques, Bretz creates exceptional modular and multifunctional designs. Only when a sofa, bed, armchair, or accessory has been perfected down to the finest detail will it meet the brand’s exacting standards.

With its colourful maximalism and joyful design, Bretz adds a vibrant splash to the festival. Bretz opens the doors to its showroom in the centre of Copenhagen, to celebrate its 130th anniversary at 3daysofdesign, and invites you to be part of this special journey! Bretz will showcase the very new 'Manyara' collection, as well as iconic classics that have shaped the brand's history. Look forward to an inspiring design talk on new work concepts: "How do we bring more joy into the home and work environment, and what role does furniture play in this?" — and to a very special opening opera performance.
