Mikkel Nielsen is a design studio working at the intersection of art, design, and architecture. Rooted in Scandinavian minimalism, the studio merges timeless aesthetics with organic, nature–inspired details to create designs that are both functional and expressive. Guided by sustainability, the brand uses bioplastics, recycled metals, and ethically sourced sand in a small–batch, zero–waste production. Advanced technologies like 3D printing, laser cutting and CNC machining enable intricate forms and mass customisation, blending innovation with craftsmanship. Locally produced and globally conscious, Mikkel Nielsen designs embody durability, adaptability, and a commitment to mindful, sustainable living.

Mikkel Nielsen offers an engaging and interactive experience where design, technology, and sustainability come together. Taking place at both Kanalhuset and Café Candø in Christianshavn, the exhibition features a range of designs made from sand, metals, and bioplastics, including on–site production of bespoke 3D printed lamps. It highlights innovative, zero–waste manufacturing methods and the use of sustainable materials. Each design is enriched by organic, nature–inspired forms that play with light and shadow to create timeless expressions. By fostering meaningful connections between craftsmanship, advanced technology, and mindful consumption, the exhibition invites visitors to explore the future of sustainable, custom–made design.
