Carl Hansen & Søn represents more than 115 years of Danish furniture history infused with respect and passion for artisanal craftsmanship. The world's largest manufacturer of designs by Hans J. Wegner, the collection of Carl Hansen & Søn also includes works by renowned design masters such as Kaare Klint, Poul Kjærholm, Vilhelm Lauritzen, Ole Wanscher, and Børge Mogensen. Proudly crafted in Denmark.

'Framing Compositions' marks a new chapter for Carl Hansen & Søn at their flagship—a space steeped in history and craftsmanship. This exhibition invites you to explore a curated interplay of past and present, where iconic designs engage in seamless dialogue with contemporary pieces. Through thoughtfully composed settings, Framing Compositions highlights the versatility of Carl Hansen & Søn's furniture across eras, demonstrating how heritage craftsmanship and modern sensibilities complement one another. As you walk through the exhibition, experience each composition from multiple angles, and discover how form, material, and tradition unite in a dynamic yet timeless expression. Looking forward to welcoming you.

Since 1935, Anglepoise has been a pioneer in lighting design, known for crafting innovative, spring–balanced lamps that combine form with flawless function. The design was invented by British engineer George Carwardine, and the brand began with the invention of a task lamp that moved like the human arm—a breakthrough that forever changed how people interact with light. Headquartered in Denmead, UK, Anglepoise lamps have lit the desks of designers, the walls of museums, and the homes of creative thinkers around the world. Because Anglepoise believes great design should last a lifetime and beyond.

ALPIlignum veneer is made from real wood, created by deconstructing and reassembling a tree trunk. The result is a material that is not printed, but inherently designable, offering limitless aesthetic possibilities. ALPI represents an undisputed gold standard in wood technology. The ALPIlignum Collection is FSC® 100% certified (FSC—C004666), enabled by full control of the supply chain. A profound synergy with the design world has evolved through long–standing collaborations with leading designers, with Piero Lissoni serving as Art Director since 2015. ALPI products are distributed in more than 60 countries.

Kvik’s originality comes from redefining how people live in their kitchens. Since 1983, Kvik has focused on human connection, not just cabinetry—coining and trademarking the term Samtalekøkken® long before open–plan living was a trend. That idea—bringing conversations, family, and daily rituals into the heart of the home—has since become the global standard. Kvik designs with purpose: every line, material, and surface has intent, evolving the concept it pioneered while keeping it human–centred and true to Danish design values. Kvik keeps it fresh by collaborating with leading Danish designers like Rikke Frost, Hans Thyge, Says Who, and supporting rising talents such as Annika Hoffmann and Bly Studio.
