Established in 2007, DesignByThem was founded by industrial designers Sarah Gibson and Nicholas Karlovasitis. Based in Australia, the company is run by designers who are dedicated to creating and producing unique products for design professionals and enthusiasts alike. DBT products are designed by Australian designers, developed in-house by the DesignByThem team and produced worldwide. The brand’s growing curated collection of furniture, accessories and lighting is characterised by its unique Australian perspective, timeless aesthetic and distinct playfulness. DesignByThem products can be seen in offices, universities, restaurants, hotels, libraries, airports and homes worldwide.

From Sydney to Copenhagen, DesignByThem celebrates 18 years of original Australian design, in an exhibition far from home. A showcase of forms, materiality and design languages, EXPANSE invites visitors to wander through a progression of new and core collections. Making a 3daysofdesign debut at Galleri Susanne Ottesen, DesignByThem will be exhibiting new and core works by a stellar cohort of independent Australian designers, accompanied by a dedicated art curation by Galleri Susanne Ottesen.

TONI has been producing high-quality kitchen and bathroom fixtures since 1918. Built to last for generations, each piece is crafted with precision and a deep respect for materials, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern functionality. From the very beginning, TONI has been made for architecture. After the devastating Christiansborg fire in 1884, TONI supplied the palace with its own sanitary fixtures, establishing a legacy of quality that has continued for over a century. Since then, iconic buildings such as Gentofte Amtssygehus in 1935 and, more recently, BIG’s Copenhagen headquarters in 2024, have been the birthplace for some of TONI's most renowned designs.

Møbel Copenhagen combines classic Danish design virtues with bold innovation to create the classics of tomorrow. The approach to design is best illustrated by imagining a dense Danish pine forest. While the trees symbolise the rich Danish design heritage, there remains room for something new and exciting—a blue mist that creeps through the trees. That blue mist symbolises Møbel's innovative spirit. By creating furniture that is both timeless and adaptable, designed to last for decades. This combination of Danish design tradition and forward–looking innovation is the core of Møbel Copenhagen's DNA and drives the ambition to create the classics of tomorrow.
