Cover image missing

wa/ter was founded in response to the excessive waste in interior design, where projects are rapidly planned, demolished over time, and never passed down. This led to the fundamental question: “Have we, as designers, failed to create designs with lasting value?” Through design, wa/ter uncovers new meaning and circulation in materials once shaped by human hands but left without purpose.

wa/ter presents a collection of products that embodies its design philosophy—breathing new life into resources that have lost their original purpose. The collection highlights the inherent beauty of materials with minimal intervention, allowing their natural characteristics to take centre stage. It features furniture, objects, and products crafted from recycled glass sourced from CRT television screens and fluorescent lamps, and Tatsuyama stone from Hyogo Prefecture, a material quarried in Japan for 1.500 years. The collection also includes terrazzo, created by blending recycled glass with natural elements like marble, minerals, and soil.

Sagarminaga Atelier is a design studio and artisan workshop specialised in installations for brands and hotels, set design, and high–end décor. The atelier works with premium natural materials like esparto grass and rattan, transforming them into custom pieces with a fresh, modern aesthetic. Its multidisciplinary team explores the full potential of natural fibres through techniques like weaving, moulding, and dyeing to create atmospheres that blend beauty with environmental responsibility. Rooted in craftsmanship, its approach is innovative and experimental, resulting in designs that are both contemporary and timeless.

Møbel Copenhagen combines classic Danish design virtues with bold innovation to create the classics of tomorrow. The approach to design is best illustrated by imagining a dense Danish pine forest. While the trees symbolise the rich Danish design heritage, there remains room for something new and exciting—a blue mist that creeps through the trees. That blue mist symbolises Møbel's innovative spirit. By creating furniture that is both timeless and adaptable, designed to last for decades. This combination of Danish design tradition and forward–looking innovation is the core of Møbel Copenhagen's DNA and drives the ambition to create the classics of tomorrow.

Graduate designer Anke Neumann makes handmade paper glow in an unusual way. In her workshop, she makes large–format papers, incorporating light–conducting fibres. Similar to veins, these run through the paper surface and also form a kind of framework that contributes to the stability of the form. LED light is guided through the fibres and emitted laterally outwards in the paper layer. Together with the material aesthetics and design language, the light papers combine sculpture, luminaire and unique piece. They are not just objects that attract a lot of attention due to their shape. They are capable of enchanting a room, bathing it in poetic light.
