Founded in 2010 in Copenhagen, &Tradition is an international brand, built on a Danish legacy of craftsmanship and design. &Tradition tell stories with originality. Whether the starting point is new or re–issued, they are passionate about designing the classics of tomorrow. They believe in empowering their employees and network of creatives, designers and partners to take an active part in their journey as a brand. With the planet and the people at the core, we strive to always act conscientiously.

For this year’s 3daysofdesign, &Tradition presents Traces – an exhibition that explores the enduring marks of design, craft, and culture. By looking at process, material and making, the brand reflects on how every act of creation carries both legacy and impact, and how designing with a care informs what is inherited and what is left behind. Traces seeks to uncover the common threads that connect classic and contemporary, local and global, past and future. Through exhibitions, new product launches, and community gatherings at Lille Petra Café, Petra Hotel, and &Tradition's flagship showroom, Traces considers how heritage and originality coexist, how impact guides creative decisions, and the power of authenticity in shaping the future.

Lasting change begins at the smallest scale. No detail is too little, no problem too small, no emotion trivial and no person irrelevant. In a time defined by environmental and social challenges, design becomes a tool for care, attention, and responsibility, where every step matters and every effort counts. At Lund University School of Industrial Design, education is grounded in curiosity, critical thinking, and real-world engagement. Students question, test, and refine, engaging with people and contexts, bringing together diverse perspectives. The school fosters a new generation of designers who create with intent and awareness. Their work reflects a shift from producing more to creating meaningful impact. Because Every Thing Matters.

Vibeke Fonnesberg Schmidt creates exclusive bespoke lighting pieces. Working with plexiglass and brass, she develops lamps shaped by a close dialogue between colour, transparency, and form. Layered hues and shifting light create depth and visual presence, while patinated brass adds a warmer, tactile tone. Each lamp is a sculptural object that brings a composed architectural presence to a space. She also creates larger installations by grouping multiple lamps. Vibeke Fonnesberg Schmidt collaborates with Nilufar Gallery in Milan and designs for Gubi.
