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.

Conceived as part gallery, part archive, and part marketplace, aarticles is a place to encounter crafted design through process, presence and material intelligence. It began from the belief that objects gain depth through company. New commissions and found objects enter the same catalogue, with each collection joining what came before and leaving room for what follows. The platform was formed as a way of looking closely, placing contemporary and found objects within a longer craft lineage and recognising their measured persistence across generations.
