VIA Design & Business is one of the largest design and business academies in the Nordic region, with more than 1.100 students in the fashion, furniture, and lifestyle industries. With campuses in Herning and Aarhus, VIA Design & Business covers a wide range of specialisations. The intersection of design and business is a unique part of the DNA, and cross–disciplinary collaboration gives students an in–depth understanding of companies’ value chains. The main focus is to contribute to the green transition.

VIA Design & Business presents a curated exhibition featuring current students and last year’s graduates. The themes include innovation, function, material experimentation, responsible production, and, of course, form. The exhibition showcases a wide variety of what engages design students in 2025. Several of these designs have been developed in collaboration with companies. This type of collaboration is a key focus of the program.

Boffi|DePadova's 'Way of Living' is made up of details, customs and practices woven together into a rich tapestry. The group proudly narrates this story via the offering of interior systems and furniture elements where quality and consistency are fundamental values. Versatility and the intelligent use of interior space form the basis of the integrated design offer from Boffi|DePadova. These two aspects are expressed by the group in the way it develops not only individual products with a unique personality, but in its ability to put forth a complete project that conveys a distinct mood by merging different entities. It is a manifesto of contemporary architecture.

Edin and Lina Kjellvertz launched Dusty Deco as a platform for curating vintage furniture, interior accessories and art. After having traveled the world and browsing flea markets for the most unique pieces, their home and storages quickly filled up to the brim with rare designs. Ten years later, Edin and Lina began drafting a new chapter in the brand’s history when closing the doors to its vintage business, instead launching their own collection of furniture, rugs and details. Today Dusty Deco is a contemporary design brand, creating pieces with just as much storytelling, originality and passion for craftsmanship as the vintage finds that originally inspired the couple to start their company.
