Furniture Seminar 2023

Date: November 8th
Time: 9.30 - 16.00
Location: Det Kongelige Akademi, Phillip de Langes Alle 10, Auditorium 2, 1435 KØBENHAVN, Denmark

The furniture seminar is organized by the national business cluster Lifestyle & Design Cluster and the Royal Academy, Institute of Architecture and Design.

Furniture Seminar 2023 focuses on problematic materials. The day sharpens the focus towards two of the more criticized materials used in the furniture industry; plastic and foam for upholstery.

In Denmark, we have a resource consumption far above average – both compared to countries in the EU and globally. This has significant implications for the climate, and we need to examine the material consumption and circularity of design products.

Therefore, circularity and material priority take center stage at the recurring furniture seminar, which brings together furniture companies and knowledge institutions for information and debate on important industry topics.

This event is FREE.
