Since its foundation in 1911, the family–owned company Fredericia has proudly built a strong tradition of beautiful craftsmanship and innovative design, developed in close collaboration with a circle of internationally recognised names. Legendary designers such as Børge Mogensen, Hans J. Wegner, Mogens Koch and Nanna Ditzel, as well as contemporary figures like Barber Osgerby, Jasper Morrison, Cecilie Manz, and Maria Bruun, all play a role in shaping Fredericia into the design and craftsmanship institution it is today. Fredericia is a proud B Corp taking part in a global movement where people use business as a force for good—a holistic certification for social and environmental impact, transparency, and accountability.

Step into the Fredericia showroom, where mid–century icons meet contemporary innovation and craftsmanship comes alive. Discover landmark designs and new releases by Nanna Ditzel, Cecilie Manz, Mogens Koch, Barber Osgerby, and Børge Mogensen. A highlight is Fredericia: A Chronicle of Danish Design, recently presented at the Triennale during Milan Design Week, tracing more than a century of furniture–making. The exhibition brings together archival works and artworks, placing furniture within a wider cultural context. Across generations, Fredericia has shaped Scandinavian design, evolving from mid–century ideals to contemporary collaborations and a continued commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship.

Edin and Lina Kjellvertz launched Dusty Deco as a platform for curating vintage furniture, interior accessories and art. After having traveled the world and browsing flea markets for the most unique pieces, their home and storages quickly filled up to the brim with rare designs. Ten years later, Edin and Lina began drafting a new chapter in the brand’s history when closing the doors to its vintage business, instead launching their own collection of furniture, rugs and details. Today, Dusty Deco is a contemporary design brand, creating pieces with just as much storytelling, originality and passion for craftsmanship as the vintage finds that originally inspired the couple to start their company.
