MERNØE is a family-based lighting company established in 2021. We design, engineer and produce lighting in classic materials and LED technology. Our lamps are handmade and customized to order in Copenhagen. Engineer, Morten Mernøe, drew his first lamp on a piece of paper. Today his design can be found in international design galleries as well as the Royal Danish Library. Morten teamed up with his two sons, Jakob and Ulrik, to open a lighting design company. Morten is focusing on design and production, while Jakob and Ulrik is operating the business. Together they have a studio in Kronprinsessegade 43, where all lamps are customized and created by hand for the individual order.

Mernøe is thrilled to invite you into their studio and workshop. The exhibition will be exploring the invention of their first two designs, No. 1 & 2. On view is a collection of materials and objects used over the past two years in the design and engineering process. Mernøe is looking forward to meeting you for a drink and a discussion of forms.

LIGHT–POINT designs more than just lamps—they design light. This is the essence of their brand slogan: CREATING LIGHT.  With 30 years in the market, they have firmly established themselves as a leading Danish design company with an international look and appeal. The approach to design is both architectural and artistic, and the style is elegant and minimalistic, yet edgy and expressive. The lamps can both serve as style markers and bold design statements and be sophisticated, understated, and serene, blending in seamlessly. The fascination with light drives LIGHT–POINT to continuously experiment, pushing the boundaries of norms and traditions to develop innovative ways of creating illumination.

In recent years, OCHRE’s collections have expanded into the world of embroidery, ceramics, and beyond. OCHRE creates objects for everyday life, guided by a search for more sustainable ways of relating to materials, to histories, and to one another.

Marrimor objects are made to be as delightful as they are purposeful, a touch provocative too. Each piece comes into being by way of a relentlessly collaborative process, one that balances refinement with irreverence. Tanja Breadner and Lauren Bugliarisi both shoot for the moon, creatively speaking, albeit from reverse angles, drawing on different histories. Tanja brings Swiss sensibilities to the platonic design partnership, and Lauren an East Coast drive. They create through playful debate, continually pushing their respective boundaries to reach that Goldilocks–like zenith between too little and too much. They know they’ve landed as soon as they agree.
