Circular landscapes - FÓLK at 3daysofdesign

The Icelandic designcompany FÓLK participates in the danish design festival 3daysofdesign with the exhibition Circular Landscapes, which speaks to the core of the company focusing on sustainable and circular design.

With deep respect for design and an urgent need for a circular transformation FÓLK introduces CIRCULAR LANDSCAPES during 3daysofdesign 2024. Influenced by the state of the earth and the single use of materials in today’s world, FÓLK explores and creates new designs from materials that are discarded, disregarded or leftover. Following-up on FÓLKs 2023 award winning circular designs, this year, FÓLK’s experiments take a deeper look into the woods of waste materials and how they can be repurposed through experimental processes in collaboration with designers and manufacturers. The exhibition’s aim is to inspire and demonstrate how design can transform a material from scrap to beauty with clever design and impactful use.
