Aakjaer Furniture (formerly Intarsia Furniture) represents a remarkable fusion of Danish design heritage and contemporary craftsmanship. Founded by Nanna Aakjær Svendsen, the company revives her grandfather Jørgen Aakjær Jørgensen's exceptional furniture designs from the 1950s. Each piece embodies the timeless elegance of Danish Modern design while maintaining the highest standards of responsible and future-oriented production. Specializing in oak, Intarsia Furniture creates pieces that stand alongside works by renowned Danish designers. The company's commitment to preserving traditional craftsmanship while embracing modern and environmentally conscious production methods has positioned it as a distinguished name in high-end furniture.

Experience the refined craftsmanship and timeless elegance of Aakjaer Furniture up close. The exhibition invites visitors to study the intricate intarsia technique featured on the Drops Table and explore the revival of classic designs originally created in 1948. Founder and granddaughter Nanna Aakjær Svendsen shares the story of bringing her grandfather’s furniture back into production and the journey from legacy to present–day success. The exhibition also presents her own designs, including the expanded Arcus Series with mirror and coat rack. It offers insight into her design philosophy, where each piece is created with purpose and lasting relevance.

Unwanted fibre becomes an UNWONTED experience. The brand makes alpaca duvets from fibres that would otherwise go unused. Across Poland, 47 small farmhouses produce fleece in quantities too small for industrial processing. UNWONTED collects, grades, and processes these volumes into duvets with GOTS–certified organic cotton shells, entirely free of synthetic components. Founded in 2025, the brand bridges Copenhagen design and Polish agriculture, where the founder's father and sister trained as professional shearers to supply the collection. Collection that is limited by the natural shearing cycle. Alpaca fibres accounts for 0.05% of world textile production and the experience of sleeping under it remains unfamiliar to most.

Kaikale is an India-based furniture brand rooted in local craftsmanship and people-driven making. In collaboration with the Scandinavian architect Alexander Mihel, the work brings together traditional Indian carpentry and Scandinavian design principles. Kaikale x Alexander Mihel presents a furniture collection developed over 2,5 years through a hands-on collaborative process. The collection is made using carpentry-based methods, working with established hardwoods and also experimenting with non-forest timber such as coconut timber. In India, the coconut tree has traditionally been fully utilised, with every part used. The furniture continues this approach by giving coconut wood a long life as durable, long-lasting pieces.

Barcelona–based design studio, Devon Liedtke, is a collection of objects for the here and there, thoughtfully designed and crafted in Europe. The collections span materials, from earthenware and charred wood to marble and onyx, united by a shared language of texture, tone, and form. Rooted in design and organic simplicity, the work honours the beauty of everyday rituals: a raku vase holding a single stem, a porcelain cup kept close at night, a carved bowl of salt at the table.
