This time, together with the Ukrainian Association of Furniture Manufacturers, the Embassy of Ukraine in Denmark and curators Anait Danielian and Larysa Tsybina, we present a collective exhibition exploring how contemporary Ukrainian design is made today.

The exhibition brings together Ukrainian brands DONNA, BROOX, Studio TIVOLI, Yakush, TheO, ReStyle, kint, Gushka Wool, WOOD MOOD, GUCULIYA, CAPSULE, COLLECTIONS, BARN CODE, AMAZE objects, Woo, Noom, and Shishka Project working across furniture, objects, wallpapers, interiors, and functional art. Some objects begin in large factories and are produced at scale. Others emerge slowly in small workshops, shaped by hand. Between these two worlds of industry and craft Ukrainian designers constantly move, adapting materials, rethinking production, and finding new ways of creating.

This year’s exhibition asks simple questions: Does an object begin with an idea, or with the possibilities of making it? Can something handmade become industrial? And when does design stop being purely functional and become something closer to art?

The exhibition unfolds through three perspectives: industrial design, workshop production, and functional art. They show Ukrainian design as something flexible and alive, and shaped by changing realities and the ability to respond to them.

We look forward to returning to Copenhagen’s biggest design festival and sharing the objects and stories behind contemporary Ukrainian design.
