In homage to Italian lighting master Carlo Nason, Form Portfolios opens its studio in central Copenhagen to a reflective presentation on Nason’s enduring legacy and the poetic clarity of glass, form, and light. The exhibition brings together rare archival pieces, newly rediscovered sketches, and a contemporary reappraisal of Nason’s iconic work—curated to illuminate both his inventive mind and the magic of Murano craftsmanship.

Founded in 2016, Form Portfolios owns and manages the work of historic and contemporary designers. Form champions the legacy of each designer through partnerships with brands, cultural institutions and galleries. As the trusted partner for designers and brands, Form uncovers and curates unique portfolios. Recent partnerships include Eames Lighting with Cassina, Gianfranco Frattini with CB2 and Bill Curry with Gubi. Form is based in Providence, Rhode Island, with a creative studio in Copenhagen, Denmark.

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.
