For more than a decade, the national business cluster, Lifestyle & Design Cluster has been a bridge-builder between fashion-, furniture- and design companies and knowledge institutions working with the Circular Economy. Lifestyle & Design Cluster promotes innovation and sustainable growth primarily in the small and medium-sized fashion & textile and furniture & interior companies. They have a broad dialogue-based interface with the business community and, through their many different projects and activities, generate new knowledge, which is communicated via events like Circular Furniture Days and on various platforms. The main focus is: TEXTILES & FASHION, INTERIOR & FURNITURE, THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY, ENTREPRENEURSHIP & TALENTS.

On the forefront of the circular agenda Lifestyle & Design Cluster is once again hosting Circular Furniture Days as part of 3daysofdesign. Circular Furniture Days brings together pioneers in sustainable business models, collaborations, and networks that benefit both companies and the broader climate agenda. Based on experiences from five previous exhibitions, Lifestyle & Design Cluster aims to illustrate the larger context of circular solutions in the furniture and interior design industry and disseminate knowledge through meetings, talks, and events. The event takes place in the garden of Designmuseum Denmark, in collaboration with the interior fair Formland, the Plastics Industry, and others.

Elvang creates responsibly produced textiles which combine timeless Nordic design with exquisite Peruvian craftsmanship. Its story is one of ethics, integrity and respect. It began in 2002, when the founders Tina and Lasse Elvang learned about the qualities of alpaca wool during a backpacking trip to Peru. Today the textiles are sold worldwide, and their social and environmental commitment remains unchanged. Making responsible choices lies at the heart of Elvang. This has led to the highest level of recognition within the World Fair Trade Organisation (WFTO) as a Guaranteed Member and participation in the UN Global Compact Initiative, ensuring that their supply chains and business model put people, the planet and animals first.

ykoon is a design label by Steven Gosseye built on conscious choice, valued not only for its design, but for the story, craftsmanship and integrity behind each piece. Each object seeks simplicity in form while remaining engaging through detail and proportion. Grounded in a strong technical foundation, every design is carefully refined down to its construction and finishing. The story of each object begins with an idea and evolves through sketches and prototypes into a well–considered result. Working exclusively with solid hardwoods, ykoon employs traditional joinery techniques, reflecting a deep respect for craftsmanship. Sustainability, tradition and character come together in objects shaped with care and intention.

Founded in 1985, Santa & Cole is an independent editor of thoughtful design objects, art and books headquartered in Belloch (Barcelona, Spain). It’s a practice rooted in a discerning eye: choosing pieces with intuitive precision, often created by others, and bringing them to light, sharing them widely, safeguarding authorship and championing their value. With an aesthetic which leans more timeless than futuristic, Santa & Cole favours history over fashion, silence over noise. From spectacle to substance: if objects can be read, it’s because they have something to say. These are slow–cooked products, crafted to last, designed to be passed down through generations.
