Silen is an Estonian company that designs and manufactures premium office pods. In Estonia, forests cover more than half the land. For Estonians, the forest is a place where silence creates privacy, and privacy gives the freedom to think. That same principle is built into every Silen pod. With more than 25 years of acoustic expertise, a relentless obsession with detail and a strong commitment to sustainability, Silen creates office pods trusted by organisations worldwide, from ambitious startups to global enterprises.

Silen presents Space Gen 2, a new generation of premium office pods developed to set a new standard for the category. Created through close collaboration between leading engineers and industrial designers, including Red Dot–recognised expertise, Space Gen 2 reflects Silen’s belief that beauty and performance should never be a compromise. Presented at the Estonian Embassy as part of the exhibition 'Slowing', Silen joins a curated selection of contemporary Estonian design brands. Rooted in a culture shaped by nature and quiet reflection, Space Gen 2 embodies the same idea at the heart of the exhibition: creating space to slow down, focus and think.

Un’common is a Polish design studio creating furniture from the finest materials such as marble, wood, and steel. At the core of the brand lies stone, the starting point of its design language and the essence of its identity. The founders believe that furniture should be more than well–designed functional objects; it should be a feast for the senses. It should evoke emotion and offer a tactile, multi–sensory experience. Few materials achieve this as powerfully as marble. Timeless, refined, and natural, marble has been used for centuries in architecture, art, and everyday life. Its weight, structure, and inherent imperfections give Un’common’s designs a sense of permanence and quiet sophistication.

Kvik’s originality comes from redefining how people live in their kitchens. Since 1983, Kvik has focused on human connection, not just cabinetry—coining and trademarking the term Samtalekøkken® long before open–plan living was a trend. That idea—bringing conversations, family, and daily rituals into the heart of the home—has since become the global standard. Kvik designs with purpose: every line, material, and surface has intent, evolving the concept it pioneered while keeping it human–centred and true to Danish design values. Kvik keeps it fresh by collaborating with leading Danish designers like Rikke Frost, Hans Thyge, Says Who, and supporting rising talents such as Annika Hoffmann and Bly Studio.
