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.

Specialising in woodworking and upholstery, they also collaborate with Portuguese artisans across disciplines.

The world needs change—more sustainability, stronger communities, and a better life for all. That’s why design isn’t just about creating something new; it’s also about improving what already is there, making it more beautiful, functional, playful, and appealing. It’s about listening to people’s needs and involving them in creating future solutions. At Kolding School of Design, creative people from all over the world come together to do just that—through craftsmanship, artistic expression, and research. The teaching is based on practical experience, the latest knowledge, and close collaboration with the outside world.

Koukos de Lab is a material–driven design studio based in Lesvos, Greece, exploring sustainable design through research, experimentation, and local production. The studio develops innovative materials and objects by transforming agricultural by–products into meaningful design resources. At the core of its practice is Koukoutsi, an eco–material made from the final waste of olive oil production, primarily olive cores and pips. Designed as a sustainable alternative to conventional materials, Koukoutsi combines durability, water resistance, and a distinctive tactile quality. Suitable for objects, furniture, and surface applications, it reflects Koukos de Lab’s commitment to circular design and responsible material transformation today, locally.

Fogia’s mission as a furniture maker is to turn exceptional ideas into well–crafted pieces. At its centre is the factory, where wood, textiles and skilled hands come together, giving designers and craftspeople the time to explore how sketches become lasting objects. The aim is to create furniture that people grow attached to over time. This comes from balancing function with friction—the detail, tension or gesture that gives character. One without the other is incomplete. Working closely with designers who question conventions with finesse, Fogia shapes furniture that feels considered. You can sense it in the whole—it simply feels right. FUNCTION / FRICTION / FINESSE / FOGIA
