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

PANI JUREK is a design studio combined with a ceramics workshop, run by Magda Jurek and Michał Borecki.​ It operates at the intersection of design, craftsmanship, and art. The objects created by Studio Pani Jurek go beyond their stereotypical functions, with interactivity being an inherent feature. Conceived as elements of spatial compositions, they often change depending on their surroundings and users. A distinctive trait of the studio’s projects is colour—a result of Magda Jurek’s background in painting. While functionality is not the starting point in the creation process, it is never neglected. Ergonomics and design discipline help tame imagination and material.

With expertise and experience, attention to detail, and craftsmanship, exceptional systems have been developed ever since. It's not about perfection, it's about authenticity and dedication, about genuineness and honesty. The company listens, observes, and thinks ahead. Out of conviction and consistency, not just as a matter of principle. Now in the fifth generation of the Eggersmann family.

Dynaudio’s design originality lies in the way engineering becomes a form of craftsmanship. Not something to be displayed, but something to be felt through sound as part of everyday living. Sound is approached as a material in its own right, shaped with the same care, discipline, and intention as wood, metal, or textile within an interior environment. Rooted in Scandinavian engineering, precision and restraint guide every decision, allowing material, structure, and performance to evolve together. By developing core acoustic components in-house, sound is refined to feel balanced, natural, and calm rather than exaggerated or forced. This commitment to control, longevity, and quiet performance defines what we call Scandinavian Engineering.

Sausset Leou is an architecture studio born from the affinity of its founders, grounded in a poetic, vernacular, and radical approach to spatial design. During their architectural studies at ENSA Paris Val de Seine, Kim and Rémy worked together on alternative design projects through shared studio workshops.

Each project is conceived as a sensitive reinterpretation of the history of places and people. The aim is to make beauty accessible to everyone, without distinction.
