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.

The story of sog begins in the world of bespoke furniture in Japan, where its creators listened to countless stories—the single line drawn by an architect, the quiet wish of a user. To answer each one, the brand's artisans sculpted wood, tailored fabrics, and bent metal. The myriad forms born and then vanished in this process became what they call the “memories of design.” From this vast accumulation of memories and experience, “sog” was born: a brand that carves out the "So” (素)—the elemental form destined to become the standard of the future.

Örsjö is founded on simple values and strong convictions, dedicated to developing and handcrafting premium lighting in its local factory with the sincere ambition of leaving the best possible mark on the planet. Handcrafted objects carry an intangible sense of human touch and warmth—a connection between creator and user that is often lost in industrial production. For this reason, craftsmanship lies at the heart of Örsjö’s work, with local artisans involved across the entire product range. Welding, soldering, bending, polishing, painting, assembling, glass blowing, and leather carving all take place either in Örsjö’s own factory or in trusted workshops within the region. Ultimately, Örsjö strives to create products designed to outlast their makers and contribute positively to the world.

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.
