New Light Pottery is a lighting manufacturer based in Nara, the ancient former capital of Japan. Founded in 2015 by designers Hiroyuki Nagatomi and Chizu Nara, the brand's mission is to preserve and celebrate Japanese craftsmanship and traditions. The understated designs highlight the textures and natural beauty of brass, glass, ceramics, and Japanese washi paper—the core materials used in New Light Pottery’s lamps. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans in Japan. Keeping production local not only honours tradition but also allows for minor adjustments, bespoke orders, and unique finishes with ease.

New Light Pottery's lamps fuse timeless design and high-quality craftsmanship that will last for generations. The exhibition features a selection of lamps made of brass, glass, ceramics, wood and washi paper, and offers a rare opportunity to get a close look at the exceptional work of Japan's artisans.

AOT is a small family–run design company based in Copenhagen. Driven by challenging materials, they aim to liberate these materials from what is expected of them. Inventing new hand–made processes is a core element of their practice where doing things the conventionally 'wrong' way, has proved to be ideal for creating things that are both original and classic. Things that are easy to read yet easy on the eye! AOT is both a design studio and a production house and everything they produce is made in Denmark — either in–house or with carefully sourced producers. This is a key part of AOT, as it enables their insistence and audacity to create things that are hand-made in Denmark and still affordable.
