PLEASE WAIT to be SEATED is a Copenhagen-based design company with a mission: to create lasting and meaningful furniture, lighting, and accessories. Their style is unmistakably their own, blending playful, vibrant ingenuity with a genuine reverence for the classics and an insatiable curiosity for architecture and form. This amalgam somehow results in designs that feel both familiar and daringly original. The distinctiveness might stem from their collaborations with some of today’s most exciting artists and designers, or perhaps their commitment to quality, enduring materials, and responsible solutions. Every piece is anchored by a carefully curated colour palette, ensuring a cohesive feel across the collection.

PLEASE WAIT to be SEATED invites you to explore their latest novelties and full design collection at their permanent showroom, located in the heart of Frederiksstaden, Copenhagen’s historic centre.

Fucina Frammenti is a sustainable brand with an online shop focused on contemporary designs that prioritise material analysis and production processes. The brand aims to find new uses for Noble Waste—processed or semi–finished results—derived from the production cycles of other companies. This waste is repurposed through thoughtful design, creating new products with minimal energy expenditure while adhering to principles of disassemblability and monomateriality. This formula, called Noble Waste Mix, embodies a circular production–consumption–reuse model. Fucina Frammenti continually refines its practices through research, experimentation, and exploration of new materials, resulting in a constantly evolving product catalog.

Material Matters is a platform dedicated to exploring the role of material intelligence in architecture and design. With more than 150 podcasts published and four acclaimed editions of its annual fair staged in London, the brand made its international debut in Copenhagen in 2025 as part of 3daysofdesign. The debut fair exceeded expectations and confirmed the appetite for a deeper, more material–led conversation during Copenhagen's design festival. Building on this success, Material Matters returns to 3daysofdesign, reflecting design and architecture's fascination with what materials can do—and what they should no longer be asked to do.
