Graduate designer Anke Neumann makes handmade paper glow in an unusual way. In her workshop, she makes large–format papers, incorporating light–conducting fibres. Similar to veins, these run through the paper surface and also form a kind of framework that contributes to the stability of the form. LED light is guided through the fibres and emitted laterally outwards in the paper layer. Together with the material aesthetics and design language, the light papers combine sculpture, luminaire and unique piece. They are not just objects that attract a lot of attention due to their shape. They are capable of enchanting a room, bathing it in poetic light.

Amidst the stone spectators of the Kings Collection, the paperworks contrast in their lightness and at the same time connect through their sculptural character. In the stairwell, visitors are escorted up and down by an poetic light installation that seems to be infinite. Visitors are also invited to try out the technique of paper making for themselves, with minimal effort.

A–POC, the acronym of 'A Piece Of Cloth', is the name of the integrated design and manufacturing system first introduced in Paris by Issey Miyake in 1998. A–POC revolutionised the process of clothes–making with its innovative concept of a streamlined, all–in–one operation, in which all the parts of the clothing are pre–woven into a single piece of cloth. Launched in 2021, A–POC ABLE ISSEY MIYAKE aims to realise the infinite potential of the A–POC system with society in mind—hence the name 'ABLE'. The brand’s designer Yoshiyuki Miyamae and his team of engineers value the dialogue between creator and wearer, as they engage with different professions and industries to further explore new possibilities in design and making.

You’re not like everyone else. Neither are we. You won’t find us in every home, in every store, or in every office. We’re among the few Norwegian furniture manufacturers who still design and craft our furniture at our own factory. We’ve been doing that since the 40s. And we’ll continue to do so, right here in Sykkylven, the country’s furniture capital. We make products built to last. In fact, no one should want or need to throw away an LK Hjelle product. That’s our vision. And it ensures that we always double-check that the screws are tight, that we choose the best suppliers, and that we make it easy for our customers to have their furniture repaired, so they get renewed life and can bring joy to many, many, many…

Kvik’s originality comes from redefining how people live in their kitchens. Since 1983, Kvik has focused on human connection, not just cabinetry—coining and trademarking the term Samtalekøkken® long before open–plan living was a trend. That idea—bringing conversations, family, and daily rituals into the heart of the home—has since become the global standard. Kvik designs with purpose: every line, material, and surface has intent, evolving the concept it pioneered while keeping it human–centred and true to Danish design values. Kvik keeps it fresh by collaborating with leading Danish designers like Rikke Frost, Hans Thyge, Says Who, and supporting rising talents such as Annika Hoffmann and Bly Studio.
