Tina Frey Designs, based in San Francisco, California, specializes in timeless, functional objects, furniture, and lighting. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted from start to finish, reflecting a commitment to thoughtful design that brings serenity and joy to everyday spaces. The studio’s entirely human, hands-on process results in organic, wabi-sabi-inspired creations that cannot be replicated by mass production. Using materials like resin, bronze, brass, and stainless steel, the designs combine minimalist elegance with practical functionality. The collections include limited edition art works, products featured in commercial projects, and are available at the showroom, select boutiques worldwide, and the studio’s online shop.

Tina Frey Designs returns to 3daysofdesign in Copenhagen to launch its new Cosmic Collection. Building on the success of last year’s Orbit Furniture debut, the Cosmic Collection introduces a new range of functional, handcrafted designs inspired by celestial forms and cosmic movement. The launch celebration features a special collaboration with Pinch Food Design, whose innovative serving pieces will complement the collection during the event. Guests are invited to explore the latest creations alongside timeless classics in a warm, inspiring atmosphere filled with delicious food, genuine hospitality, and meaningful connections. This is a unique opportunity to experience the intersection of creativity, craftsmanship, and community.

Founded in 1985, Santa & Cole is an independent editor of thoughtful design objects, art and books headquartered in Barcelona, Spain. It’s a practice rooted in a discerning eye: choosing pieces with intuitive precision, often created by others, and bringing them to light, sharing them widely, safeguarding authorship and championing their value. With an aesthetic which leans more timeless than futuristic, Santa & Cole favours history over fashion, silence over noise. From spectacle to substance: if objects can be read, it’s because they have something to say. These are slow–cooked products, crafted to last, designed to be passed down through generations.

VÆRKTØJ is an exhibition format that aims to communicate and demonstrate how the identities of designers are largely shaped by the tools they use; as tools not only drive the development of ideas and creative processes but also leave a distinct mark on the final product.
