Embassy of France
Cover image missing

The French Embassy in Denmark is located in the Thott Palace, a remarkable 17th century historical building on Kongens Nytorv, in the heart of Copenhagen. The palace has housed the embassy for a century, and has since its origins been a symbol of the strong ties between France and Denmark. All year round, the Embassy opens its doors to the public on the occasion of various cultural events and has showcased French designers as part of 3daysofdesign every year since the festival began. Institut français is the French cultural center in Denmark, and also functions as the French Embassy's cultural department. The institute's mission is to promote French culture, language and research to the Danish public.

During 3daysofdesign, the French Embassy in Denmark, LE FRENCH DESIGN and the Mobilier National are proud to present the exhibition "RÉSURGENCES" in the historical reception rooms of the Thott Palace. After being successfully presented in Paris, this exhibition brings to the festival's audience a curated selection of iconic pieces by the great masters of 20th-century French design, faithfully reissued by leading contemporary houses. Among the highlights are five major prototypes developed within the Atelier de Recherche et de Création (ARC) of the Mobilier National. "Résurgences" celebrates unparalleled craftsmanship and embodies a shared vision: to highlight the legacy and contemporary innovation of French design on the global stage.

Mikkel Nielsen is a Copenhagen–based design studio producing architectural lamps through 3D printing in bioplast. Each lamp is designed and produced in Copenhagen in small, limited series. The collection is defined by a clear formal logic: a single organic element repeated twelve times to form a balanced circular composition, creating a strong and recognisable identity. Production is intentionally kept small, allowing close control of material, surface, colour and light quality. The studio focuses on durability and long–term relevance rather than trends. At 3daysofdesign, the SSPL lamp is presented in 20 new colours.
