MOTARASU crafts design objects within lighting, furniture and interior that unites the clean, functional elegance of Danish design with the poetic beauty and refined simplicity of Japanese aesthetics to bring joy. Dedicated to creating timeless, sustainable pieces that evoke tranquillity and harmony, transforming everyday spaces into serene environments. By blending the best of both cultures, MOTARASU aspire to induce mindful living, elevate interiors with pure forms and natural materials, and infuse them with a quiet, understated elegance that speaks to the soul. During 3daysofdesign MOTARASU launches a new pendant by Ryota Yokozeki.

Composed Matter, curated by Norm Architects, brings together three distinct brands—Motarasu, Sumum and Søuld—each shaped by its own heritage, craft and aesthetic language. Curated and spatially designed by Norm Architects, the exhibition unfolds as a quiet exploration of how materials, light and space interact to shape our sensory experience. Light and shadow become active participants in the composition. Surfaces respond to illumination, revealing depth and subtle variation. Soft geometries guide movement through the space, while moments of spatial compression and openness shift the emotional tone of the exhibition. Visitors are invited to slow down, to notice how small material gestures can alter the perception of a room.

RARERAW is a modular furniture brand that moves beyond fixed forms, allowing its systems to be flexibly interpreted in the space between structure and sensibility. Rather than viewing furniture as a finished object, RARERAW understands it as a structural unit that shapes space. Each module functions as part of a larger framework that evolves through use, interaction, and context. Designed to respond to changing environments and lifestyles, the system encourages openness rather than prescription. As spaces change, RARERAW adapts—inviting users to reconfigure, reinterpret, and gradually complete the system over time.

Gemla is a contemporary furniture maker—and always has been. Yet at the same time, they verge on being an anachronism. Always have. The company was founded in 1861, specialising in steam–bent furniture. It’s steam that makes bentwood furniture so exceptionally durable, yet graceful. On the factory floor, guided by the knowledge of craft, the brand meets patience, care and sustainability, passed down through generations. It’s no coincidence that its pieces are in high demand for hotels and restaurants—settings that require equal parts aesthetics and durability.
