Founded in Denmark in 1872, Fritz Hansen is a global leader in furniture, lighting and accessory design and production. Driven by a passion for beauty, quality, and craftsmanship, the company embodies a modern, Nordic lifestyle and collaborates with visionary artists, designers, and architects from around the world. The brand has co-created with Arne Jacobsen, Cecilie Manz, Hans J. Wegner, Piero Lissoni, Jaime Hayon and Poul Kjærholm, among others. In 2022 Fritz Hansen acquired Skagerak, a design company founded in 1976 in Denmark, bringing two pioneering Danish design brands together as one company. Fritz Hansen stands behind Skagerak to bring the best of Danish design to every part of life, indoors and outdoors.

At this year's 3daysofdesign, Fritz Hansen explores the immutable relationship between art and design with a series of artistic installations of iconic pieces in the exhibition, EXPRESSIONS OF CHARACTER. The installations expose the base elements of design through shapes, colours, light and material character. Taking place across the indoor and outdoor areas of Charlottenborg in Copenhagen, home of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, the exhibition is set in the very rooms where the most influential Danish designers received their formative education.

Bent Hansen delivers honest design with a passion for solid craftsmanship, high-quality materials, and unique comfort. Bent Hansen's knowledge in upholstery is gathered since 1948 and combined with a curious approach to furniture design. At Bent Hansen materials matter. The right material invites you to feel the fabric or caress the leather. The right material wraps itself beautifully around the furniture; it shapes the design, and it adds comfort. With more than 75 years of experience, Bent Hansen humbly dares to call themselves experts in dressing furniture to its full potential. Through three generations, Bent Hansen has evolved into a contemporary design brand with a growing collection of furniture fit for both retail and contract.

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.
