Lysbilleder.com is a Copenhagen-based light-craft collaborative that creates installations exploring the materiality of light. These installations provide both functional and atmospheric lighting, but they essentially serve as an instrument for capturing light-particles, shivering in weightless motifs inspired by nature. The manufacturing combines traditional craft and robotic prototyping, blending phenomenology and technology, in unique light pieces made from recycled acrylic glass. Behind Lysbilleder stands renowned textile and light artist Dorte Østergaard Jakobsen and explorative architect Jacob Hilmer, in a collaboration that brings artistic exploration and prototyping processes together, resulting in unique visual and sensual works.
Lysbilleder.com is honored to present the exhibition, SPOR, at Officinet during 3 Days of Design, located at the heart of the festival next to Designmuseum Danmark. The theme of SPOR, meaning "traces", explores the notion as a grammar in an art and design language that serves as device to capture the complexity, meaning and beauty of nature, while also contemplating human imprints. The works on display celebrate the resonance of these traces, represented by collaborate works in acrylic glass, individual works in Silk by textile and light artist Dorte Østergaard Jakobsen, and metal reliefs by explorative architect Jacob Hilmer. During the festival, guests are invited to attend talks and performances that delve into the exhibition's narrative

Contact UsSince its inception in 2013, Signe Byrdal Terenziani has facilitated the growth of the design community in her role as Managing Director. It all began 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 Scandinavia.
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.
