Thorup Copenhagen shares a love for the art of furniture and lighting making, inspiring appreciation for objects crafted with integrity and designed to endure. Since its launch in 2018, the Copenhagen–based brand has been dedicated to creating thoughtfully crafted furniture, lighting, and objects that not only emphasises durability but also serve a functional purpose in everyday life. Every element is carefully considered to foster a deeper connection to design and craftsmanship.

For this year’s 3daysofdesign, Thorup Copenhagen presents a curated exhibition at Papirøen—showcasing a love for the art of furniture and lighting making. A deep curiosity for materials and a thoughtful design process, equally as significant as the final object, are reflected in the collection and available for visitors to experience firsthand at the festival. Explore, connect, and see how each object is crafted to foster appreciation for integrity, durability, and functional purpose in design.
