The Danish Crafts Collection
Maison & Objet, 2012
The Danish Crafts Collection is an award-winning annual collection founded in 1999. It presents a curated selection of the best in emerging Danish craft and design at international fairs and in other commercial contexts. For four consecutive years, Studiomama was commissioned to curate and design the Maison & Objet presentation.
Danish Crafts CC16
Each year, we selected a diverse range of 20–30 of Denmark’s most promising ceramists, jewellers, textile and glass artists and furniture designers. Their products, all designed and made in Denmark, were anchored in local traditions and infused with the skill of experienced hands and a feel for form, aesthetics and storytelling. The results were relevant and meaningful products that mattered to the maker and made sense to the user.
2012 was the 16th Danish Craft Collection, where the selection reflected the exciting possibilities for cultural and technical experimentation in response to economic and environmental challenges expressed through making.
