Material Matters
Founded in 2019, Material Matters is a platform dedicated to exploring the role of material intelligence in architecture and design. With more than 140 podcasts published and four acclaimed editions of its annual fair staged in London, the brand made its international debut in Copenhagen in 2025 as part of 3daysofdesign—an appearance that exceeded expectations and confirmed the appetite for a deeper, more material–led conversation. Building on the success of last year, Material Matters returns to 3daysofdesign as an established event taking up, once again, the residence in the heart of Christianshavn, positioned as a key destination within the city.
Staged in a dedicated exhibition space within the historic Gammel Dok building, highly visible from the city centre with panoramic views of Copenhagen’s skyline, it is one of the most iconic waterfront buildings in Christianshavn—a unique district with a rich history of trade and craftsmanship. Material Matters Copenhagen will feature a curated selection of exhibitors, each presenting a distinct material story that highlights the importance of material intelligence in shaping the future. Alongside the exhibitions, visitors can experience live talks, demonstrations, and events as part of Material Matters Copenhagen 2025.
