Now available in more than 70 countries, the independent French company has become more international with over 60 designers to its name and continues to push boldly forward to unearth new talents and to nurture a project with purpose. Petite Friture is proud to take a stand, seeking out the best solutions at every step of the way, using the right techniques and right people to better serve the planet and do something good. Petite Friture is more than just a design editor, it is a state of mind grounded in trust and optimism. Its ambition: contribute, through its collection to making good out of beauty.

During 3dayofdesign, Petite Friture takes over the Babylon restaurant, located in the iconic building; Søpavillionen by the Lakes in Copenhagen. It is an opportunity to preview new products and present Petite Friture's outdoor collections in an unconventional setting on a dock. It is also an opportunity to get together with some of the designers and Petite Friture founder Amélie du Passage, and of course to organize convivial moments.

A life–centred approach ensures no harmful disruptors enter the environment, protecting everyone from maker to end user. Continually pushing the boundaries of furniture typology, the studio explores Indian minimalism while revisiting traditional skills through a contemporary lens, creating pieces that hold space and life in equal measure.

Fogia’s mission as a furniture maker is to turn exceptional ideas into well–crafted pieces. At its centre is the factory, where wood, textiles and skilled hands come together, giving designers and craftspeople the time to explore how sketches become lasting objects. The aim is to create furniture that people grow attached to over time. This comes from balancing function with friction—the detail, tension or gesture that gives character. One without the other is incomplete. Working closely with designers who question conventions with finesse, Fogia shapes furniture that feels considered. You can sense it in the whole—it simply feels right. FUNCTION / FRICTION / FINESSE / FOGIA

FANZI is a spatial practice based in Copenhagen, working across art, design and architecture. Projects move between object, exhibition, and architecture, often combining all three within a single framework. Rather than treating these as separate categories, the studio develops them as parts of a continuous spatial setting. FANZI operates less like a traditional studio and more like an experience-led practice, where design is not only seen, but quietly felt in how people inhabit space.
