Established in Copenhagen in 2017, Tekla creates elevated yet functional homeware pieces that centre a timeless, straightforward design expression. Since launching, Tekla has embodied an honest commitment to uncompromising quality. With a foundation in bedding, the full collection now comprises pieces for the entire home, including towels, sleepwear and blankets—all made to be lived in and made to last. Tekla holds B Corp certification, joining a global movement of people using business as a force for good. Tekla is available at its Copenhagen and London stores, globally online and through a handful of carefully selected retail partners in Europe, North America and the Asia–Pacific.

Tekla returns to Charlottenborg, an art institution and former palace located in the heart of Copenhagen, with The Heart of Living exhibition exploring the tradition and craft of patchwork quilts. Referencing 20th–century Swedish design and using colours from Tekla’s archive, exhibition pieces are displayed alongside Tekla’s heirloom–inspired broderie anglaise collection in cabin beds—enclosed wooden beds used until the 19th century in Sweden. The exhibition design is supported by Mentze Ottenstein.

Bread and Butter is an itinerant exhibition platform that explores everyday rituals through the concept of paired objects. Transforming everyday spaces—such as bookstores, salons, restaurants, and parking lots—into stages for collaboration, designers from different generations and cultural backgrounds translate their personal routines and local traditions into perfectly matched pairs. Just as "bread and butter" signifies something essential and inseparable, the paired objects form functional, aesthetic, and social relationships—quietly conveying each designer's experiences and contexts, while opening space for new connections and creative dialogue with local communities.

Blå Station is a family business based in a former sewing factory in Åhus, on the south–east coast of Sweden, where the ocean is as restless as the brand itself. Their focus lies on the interiors that surround us—how they are built, how they function, and how people interact within public spaces. Questions about changing social behaviours and evolving demands continually inspire new ways of thinking. To meet contemporary needs and desires, Blå Station believes in maintaining an open and innovative mindset, guided by childlike curiosity and a firm rejection of shortcuts and apathy. Fuelled by curiosity, the search for the unexpected and the yet–to–be–discovered continues. Peace, Love & Good Design.
