Throughout history, tools have been crucial to humanity’s ability to survive and innovate, from primitive stone tools to advanced machinery, tools have been key to shaping the world. VÆRKTØJ is an exhibition format that aims to communicate and demonstrate how the identities of designers are largely shaped by the tools they use; as tools not only drive the development of ideas and creative processes but also leave a distinct mark on the final product.

VÆRKTØJ 2 : The Workshop Press. The tool that has been selected for this years exhibition and from which all works derive, is the workshop press. Participants: Alvilde Holm, Depping & Jørgensen, Frederik Gustav, John Tree, Jonas Trampedach, Kasper Salto, Michael Antrobus, and Tom Dixon.

Therefore, the work of the hand holds great importance for Örsjö, utilising local craftsmen for the entire product range. Welding, soldering, bending, polishing, painting, assembling, blowing glass, and carving leather all take place in their own factory or at friends' workshops in the region. Örsjö simply aims for their products to outlive themselves and leave the best possible mark on the planet.
