FÓLK is an emerging North Nordic interior and lifestyle brand. FÓLKs vision is to accelerate the green transition through design. FÓLK strives to design products with low environmental footprint, high durability and suitable for disassembly, to enable the circularity of materials. FÓLK uses natural and upcycled materials in its designs and aspires to facilitate people to live a more sustainable lifestyle. FÓLK was founded in Reykjavik Iceland in 2017 and has originally built up its design portfolio in collaboration with talented young designers from Reykjavik. In 2022 the brand was chosen the Best Investment in Design at the Icelandic Design Awards. In 2023 FÓLK opened its own showroom and office in the heart of Copenhagen.
With deep respect for design and an urgent need for a circular transformation FÓLK introduces CIRCULAR LANDSCAPES during 3daysofdesign 2024. Influenced by the state of the earth and the single use of materials in today’s world, FÓLK explores and creates new designs from materials that are discarded, disregarded or leftover. Following-up on FÓLKs 2023 award winning circular designs, this year, FÓLK’s experiments take a deeper look into the woods of waste materials and how they can be repurposed through experimental processes in collaboration with designers and manufacturers. The exhibition’s aim is to inspire and demonstrate how design can transform a material from scrap to beauty with clever design and impactful use.
