Iteration Collective is a newly established design collective of emerging designers united by a shared ambition to create and challenge one another. Through close collaboration, the collective tackles new design briefs with defined constraints and objectives, encouraging each member to produce original work while pushing creative boundaries. Committed to responsible design practices, Iteration Collective explores new approaches, questions conventional norms in furniture design, and promotes more eco-conscious solutions, contributing to ongoing dialogue around innovation and sustainability.

The Bridge of Time exhibition explores how tradition and innovation come together in modern furniture design. Each designer draws inspiration from Nordic design traditions and craft techniques from before 1970, blending them with today’s production methods. The pieces are mainly made from recycled or up–cycled materials, with a focus on sustainability and circular design principles. The exhibition offers a tribute to the designers and design traditions that have shaped the past, while also envisioning a sustainable and innovative future for Nordic furniture design.
