Cathrine Raben Davidsen, owner of CRD studio, is a Danish artist primarily recognised as a painter, although she has been working with ceramics for the past 15 years. She blends minimalism with organic forms, seamlessly integrating functionality with artistic expression. Using traditional handcrafting techniques, she emphasises the individuality of each piece. Materials such as clay and porcelain are carefully chosen to highlight tactile qualities, fostering a deep connection to nature. Drawing inspiration from her background as a painter and Scandinavian culture, her work embodies simplicity, functionality, and a profound respect for both nature and craftsmanship.

During 3daysofdesign, Cathrine Raben Davidsen will open the doors to CRD STUDIO CASA, her new family home on Paper Island. Situated in one of the 11 townhouses at Operahusene, the space has undergone a thoughtful transformation. The event will showcase a curated selection of her own work — including ceramics, lamps and tableware — alongside pieces from her family’s art collection and favourite furniture. Several artists and designers, handpicked by Raben Davidsen, will also contribute, offering a unique and personal insight into her creative vision. Additionally, the CRD studio store on Sølvgade will be open throughout the event, inviting visitors to further explore her work and discover a new collaboration with Emilie Helmstedt.
