Each June, Copenhagen shifts into a slower, more deliberate rhythm, one grounded in conversation, materiality and the evolving language of contemporary design.
3 Days of Design continues to offer a rare kind of accessibility: brands open their doors, designers step forward, and the city itself becomes a distributed showroom. This year, our brands present a considered mix of new collections, spatial installations and quiet refinements. Below, a concise guide to where to find them, and what to expect.
The Fogia Bookshop
Sølvgade 5, 1307 Copenhagen
Copenhagen fills with movement during 3daysofdesign. People move quickly, from one impression to the next. But every now and then, something invites you to slow down. The Fogia Bookstore is one such place. Created with Copenhagen–based publishing house Le Petit Voyeur, it’s a space shaped around reading—and everything that surrounds it. Furniture and books may seem like different disciplines, yet both begin as ideas, shaped by hands and refined through time. Welcome to experience new members of the Fogia Collection, together with selected titles by Le Petit Voyeur.
The Louise Roe Gallery
Fredericiagade 57
For this year’s 3 Days of Design, Louise Roe invites you to stay a little longer. The Louise Roe Gallery is activated as an extension of The Roe Bar, a space that already exists as a social interior, now brought into focus as both experience and presentation. Rather than a traditional exhibition, the installation unfolds as a lived environment. A café setting encourages you to sit, gather and linger, with furniture and objects introduced through use, where hospitality becomes the central gesture.
Rooted in ideas of tradition, hosting and shared dining, the presentation offers a more intimate way to encounter new pieces, including the Frankie Café Chair and Table alongside The Person Glass Lamp.Â
Resident
The Conary, St. Kongensgade 82
Room for Resonance brings together a considered presentation from New Zealand design house Resident, centred on an exploration of attuned living through craft, material and atmosphere. Developed in collaboration with selected designers, the exhibition frames furniture, lighting and textiles as a composed, cohesive environment, one designed not just to be seen, but to be felt.
Curated by Asca Studio and Relief Gallery, the presentation offers a quieter, more immersive experience, where form, texture and spatial rhythm work together to create a sense of balance and resonance.
Hem, Design Starts on Paper
Papirøen 5, 1436 Copenhagen
Hem returns to 3 Days of Design as part of Design Starts on Paper, a group exhibition curated by MBSY Lab at Papirøen, alongside BAUX and BLOND, with support from Porsche and Aarke. At the centre of the presentation is the debut of Min Chair by British designer Max Lamb, a solid pine chair defined by reduction, utility and material honesty. The installation also features a monumental U-shaped configuration of the modular Palo Block Sofa, upholstered in a pink tartan textile by Sahco, alongside the Boa Pouf by Sabine Marcelis in a new dove blue finish.
Across the week, the space will host a series of Design Talks in collaboration with New Era Magazine, adding another layer to an already thoughtful and engaging exhibition.
Massproductions
Odd Fellow Palace, Bredgade 28
At this year’s 3 Days of Design, Massproductions unveils the Astro Armchair, a natural progression from the previously released club chair. The new design expands on the original with added versatility, available with or without castors.
Alongside the launch, a new collaboration between Massproductions and Layered will also be introduced. Together, they present an immersive installation that reflects the brand’s distinctive approach to industrial, functional design, grounded in clarity, usability and long-term thinking.
Normann Copenhagen
Niels Hemmingsens Gade 12
At this year’s 3 Days of Design, Normann Copenhagen explores one of the most familiar yet often overlooked structures in our daily lives: the grid. Presented across multiple floors, the exhibition uses the grid as a spatial language, unfolding through a series of installations that move between the tangible and the abstract. Repetition, pattern and formation shape the environment, creating a framework where furniture becomes the element that activates and gives meaning to the space.
It’s a thoughtful, layered presentation that reflects how design quietly supports the rhythms of everyday life.
New Works
New Works Residence, Store Kongensgade 70
For 3 Days of Design 2026, New Works presents Meditations in an Emergency, an exhibition exploring the tension between external noise and inner stillness.
Responding to a pace of life shaped by acceleration, distraction and visual overload, the exhibition considers what it means to create space for attention. A sequence of carefully composed interiors unfolds room by room, guided by atmosphere, rhythm and composition.Â
Each space introduces its own character, inviting you not just to observe, but to spend time within it. Through the interplay of objects, materials and light, the exhibition sharpens perception and creates moments of reflection, focus and presence.
Rather than bold, singular statements, 3 Days of Design 2026 feels like a collection of clear, thoughtful positions. Each brand continues to refine its approach, contributing to a broader culture that values collaboration, clarity and endurance.
If you’re in Copenhagen, we would love to connect. We’ll be moving between exhibitions across the three days, so feel free to reach out and arrange a time to meet.
