Preview of 3daysofdesign 2025

Copenhagen’s much-loved annual celebration of creativity and craftsmanship 3daysofdesign returns with a vibrant programme of exhibitions, talks and immersive experiences spread across the city’s showrooms, heritage spaces and secret courtyards. Taking place under the theme ‘Keep it Real’, this year’s edition honours authentic individual expression and meaningful experiences, echoing a shared desire for a world that is more caring, inclusive and conscious.

This is the underlying ethos of many exhibiting rug companies who are known to champion sustainable practices and forward-thinking design. Maison Rhizomes, a brand committed to translating paintings into handmade rugs, will debut a collection of its art rugs at the Design Dialogue exhibition. The collection blurs the line between art and functional object, and is centred on a piece by Belgian painter and co-founder Charlotte Culot. Also exploring this relationship is Linie Design, whose exhibition at 3daysofdesign transforms handmade carpets into immersive artworks—displaying them on walls and as sculptural pieces, complemented by a live performance of two dancers exploring the space between design and art.

YURI HIMURO presents her signature interactive textiles, including COLORWAVE, SNIP SNAP and BLOOM, showcasing her playful approach to weaving, storytelling and user engagement through innovative, transformative designs.

Exploring the relationship between tradition and modernity is nanimarquina, which will unveil its recent collections at the Past Forward exhibition. Also addressing this subject is Warp & Weft, with its 25th-anniversary Crossroads collection (see Collections). Inspired both by historic trade routes and today’s digital landscape, the nine designs will be displayed at FRAMING.

Other exhibiting brands include Rezas, which, at design and furniture store Illums Bolighus will showcase its signature selection of rugs combining Nordic design with traditional craftsmanship.cc-tapis will unveil the new Monograph collection by Belgian designer Destroyers / Builders, and the Swedish interior design brand LAYERED will bring its new, 10thanniversary designs inspired by optical illusions.
