What started back in 2012 as a one–man show has now, in little more than a decade, become an established European design brand: Freifrau Manufaktur. Operating from Lemgo, a small town in Westphalia, Germany, this exclusive manufacturer of seating furniture is characterised by the highest possible levels of comfort, lovingly–rendered details, and exacting quality and sustainability standards. Working with big–name designers and those at the start of their careers alike, since it was founded, Freifrau has built up a portfolio of timeless chairs, armchairs, and settees, wide–ranging and yet all with a unifying emphasis on individual comfort, total versatility, and undeniable individuality.

Freifrau Manufaktur presents the Mia modular sofa in an impressive XXL version at the 3daysofdesign exhibiton. The Lemgo-based company brings summer to Frederiksgade with a stylish display in two rooms and a colour palette ranging from rich green and pink to pastel sage and lilac. In addition to the Mia sofa, the new Marie lounge chair and a low dining version of the Marie chair are on show. Unique lights by Eloa, which float like pink soap bubbles, create a magical atmosphere throughout the display.

Gabriella Mozo’s inspiration stems from a diverse apparel design background, honed through more than a decade of experience in both New York and LA. This creative journey led to a transition into the realm of product and furniture design, prompted by a move to Milan in 2022, where she is now based. Through a deep curiosity and exploration of potential waste materials, the designer has developed an alternative 'concrete' incorporating post–industrial wool remnants from textile and rug brands like Manteco and cc—tapis. The resulting material balances the rigidity of a porous stone with a uniquely soft and hairy tactility.
