New Light Pottery is a lighting manufacturer based in the ancient former Japanese capital of Nara. Founded in 2015 by designers Hiroyuki Nagatomi and Chizu Nara, the company creates understated designs that highlight the textures and natural beauty of brass, glass, ceramic and traditional Japanese washi paper. Each lamp is handcrafted in Japan by skilled artisans. Supporting Japanese craftsmanship and the artisans who keep these traditions alive has been central to New Light Pottery’s mission from the very beginning. Keeping production in Japan also allows for minor adjustments, special orders and unique finishes.

New Light Pottery will exhibit as part of the Japanmade Vol 1. exhibition. Japanmade Vol.1, a focused exhibition celebrating contemporary Japanese design and craftsmanship, will debut during 3daysofdesign 2026 from 10-12 June at Damfærgevej 2 in Copenhagen. 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. The exhibition is curated by OEO Studio and produced by Jens H. Jensen

There is something really nice about getting up close—to the furniture, the makers, the production process. A. Petersen creates furniture with a focus on quality, craftsmanship and respect for professional expertise. Theor products are designed, developed and produced in Denmark. Furniture from A. Petersen is crafted with the intention to renew the Danish design tradition and carry it into the 21st century. Not in a grand or rapid way—for the sake of scale or tempo—but in a measured, serious way, for the sake of current time as well as posterity, because furniture should last a lifetime, and hopefully even longer. A good piece of furniture only becomes more beautiful through time and use, as lived life leaves its mark on the materials.

Bretz combines two essentially contrary, but fundamental desires in life: On the one hand, the creations take you on fantastic journeys full of adventure and freedom. But, on the other hand, they wrap themselves around you making you feel safe and secure. This vision takes shape the brands workshop where Bretz strides forth with a bold pioneering spirit while drawing on over a hundred years of German upholstery tradition. Born out of a passion for the unexpected coupled with sophisticated production techniques, Bretz creates exceptional modular and multifunctional concepts. Only when sofa, bed, armchair or accessory has been honed right down to the last detail, will they meet our exacting standards.

Layers of Light creates sculptural wall lamps where art and precise engineered illumination merge. Each piece is built from carefully calculated layers of light, transforming the wall into a composition of depth, shadow, and reflection. Inspired by natural light phenomena, the work evokes a sensory response — light that can be felt as much as seen. These pieces replace traditional wall art while fundamentally reshaping the atmosphere of a space.

Trained as an architect, Finn Juhl approached furniture as an artistic discipline rather than a purely functional task. His work challenged established ideas of construction and use, introducing sculptural forms and a clear sense of proportion that helped shape Danish modernism. For more than two decades, House of Finn Juhl has held the exclusive rights to revive and produce Finn Juhl’s furniture designs, working to preserve the intent and principles behind his work—an approach that continues to resonate across generations.
