August Sandgren makes mess pretty, handcrafting timeless, functional and aesthetic storage objects. With respect for its 100-year-old box-making heritage, August Sandgren offers storage solutions for every need in today’s cluttered world – at home and in the office. In addition to general storage boxes, they offer a selection of exquisite jewellery boxes, watch boxes and on-the-go solutions. Their beautiful objects are either made from upcycled materials sourced from exclusive partners in the European furniture and fashion industry or from OEKO-TEX-certified leather. Every object from August Sandgren is handcrafted in Europe and made to last a lifetime or more – evident in both design, craftsmanship and choice of materials.

This year, August Sandgren’s main location during 3daysofdesign is at The Audo in Nordhavn. Here, they will display a new collection of Limited Edition fabric boxes in the concept store and a wider assortment including a range of new storage objects and materials in hotel room no.4 on the hotel’s 1st floor. Despite the intimate setting, August Sandgren invites everyone to stop by and explore the collection. In addition to the main exhibition, August Sandgren will be present at other venues around Copenhagen including New Mags, where you can explore their new co-lab. They will also show a bespoke upcycled colour collection and a new Limited Edition made in natural innovative materials. More information will follow closer to the event.

Helle Mardahl Studio operates at the intersection of art and functionality to create a dreamy universe of richly coloured glass designs of eccentric deviance. Influenced by nostalgic memories from childhood and iconic films such as Alice in Wonderland and Charlie & The Chocolate Factory, Helle Mardahl’s collection of glossy glass creates a conceptual candy universe of magic, dreams and indulgence. A graduate of London’s Central Saint Martins, Helle Mardahl is an artist and designer whose work encompasses sculpture, installations, and glass art. Her work is marked by a sense of lavishness and extravagance combined with a sense of flamboyance. Using the ancient technique of mouth-blowing, each object has its own unique shape and personality.

Pholc is a Swedish lighting brand with a different take on Scandinavian design. The brand has a clear mission – to challenge the expected with every lamp. A mission that requires a constant flow of new ideas, influences, and approaches. In other words, collaboration is at the heart of Pholc. It is even stated in the name. Pholc is a wordplay of Folk, the Swedish name for people. The very essence of the brand is built upon partnering up with creatives who share the will and courage to make strong design statements. It’s all about finding and nurturing relationships where ideas can grow, alter, and evolve. A respectful creative friction pushing the boundaries of what design can be.

3daysofdesign is a curated design festival. In order to be eligible to participate as an exhibitor, you have to meet a specific set of criteria. Interested individuals, companies and brands can apply directly online via our application page.

It all began in 2013 as a small design event held in an old warehouse in Nordhavn, a harbour area overlooking Copenhagen’s waterfront. Four Danish brands launched the event as a joint initiative: Montana, Erik Jørgensen (now owned by Fredericia Furniture), Anker & Co, and Kvadrat. At that time, Copenhagen lacked a proper design festival, since the previous annual furniture fair at Bella Center closed down some years before.

Today, the 3daysofdesign festival extends to the entire city of Copenhagen and is considered the most significant annual design festival in Scandinavian

‍

Each year since its inception, 3daysofdesign has grown in popularity exponentially. In 2023, over 250 brands exhibited at the festival, where visitors could choose from as many as 500 events to attend in various design districts across Copenhagen, such as design talks, networking events, etc.

3daysofdesign takes place every year in Copenhagen mainly during the second week of June from Wednesday to Friday. In 2024 the festival will be held from 12 - 14 June.
