Based in Porto, Origin Made fuses modern design sensibilities with masterful craft techniques honed over generations to produce collectible furniture, objects and lighting that celebrate thoughtful design and the authenticity of the human touch. The brand collaborates directly with solo artisans and skilled craftspeople who hold the keys to traditional ways of making. These makers breathe life into their creations, turning simple objects into conduits of cultural richness and individual mastery. Origin Made is a movement to encourage people to reflect on how the things around us are created, as well as to appreciate natural materials and craftsmanship.

Brought to life in a special townhouse steeped in history in the heart of Copenhagen, the exhibition is designed to provide a haven for quiet reflection, casual conversation, and the exploration of new perspectives.

For over 30 years, Desalto has nurtured a concept of aesthetically sophisticated products rooted in continuous technical and technological research aimed at enhanced functionality. With three decades of activity, Desalto stands as both a youthful and time-honoured brand—a dynamic spirit that seamlessly blends iconic seating and complements, resembling graphic forms sketched in the air, with tables as versatile as daily life itself. The narrative began in 1990 when the four Orsenigo brothers, heirs to a family metalworking business, envisioned a company more attuned to contemporary trends. They sought collaboration with designers, fostering diverse perspectives that align with the same corporate philosophy centred on fundamental values of harmony and elegance.

Blå Station is a family business located in what used to be a sewing factory in Åhus—on the southeast coast of Sweden, where the ocean is just as restless as they are. Their focus is on on the interiors that surround us—how they are built and how they work. “How do we interact in the public space? Has today's society added new demands? Has our way of socialising changed?” To meet today's demands and desires, Blå Station believes it is necessary to have an open and innovative mind, a child's curiosity as well as a heart that rejects shortcuts and apathy. With curiosity as fuel, they keep searching for the unexpected, yet–to–be discovered. Peace, Love & Good Design.

TONI has been producing high-quality kitchen and bathroom fixtures since 1918. Built to last for generations, each piece is crafted with precision and a deep respect for materials, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern functionality.
 
From the very beginning, TONI has been made for architecture. After the devastating Christiansborg fire in 1884, TONI supplied the palace with its own sanitary fixtures, establishing a legacy of quality that has continued for over a century. Since then, iconic buildings such as Gentofte Amtssygehus in 1935 and, more recently, BIG’s Copenhagen headquarters in 2024, have been the birthplace for some of TONI's most renowned designs.
