Carl Hansen Exhibition

Carl Hansen, the legendary Danish furniture manufacturer appointed Studio X to design a benchmark exhibition stand that could be moved from site to site and support their busy tour schedule.

The stand was designed to reference the crafted and handmade nature of their product while celebrating the design masters who created them.

The exhibition concept was designed to communicate Carl Hansen’s enduring commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and Danish modernism. Studio X developed a spatial journey that highlighted the tactile qualities of natural materials and the refinement of handcrafted details, ensuring each piece was experienced as both furniture and cultural artefact.

The layout created moments of pause and reflection, allowing visitors to engage with the narrative behind each design icon. Integrated storytelling panels and digital media reinforced the heritage of Carl Hansen while connecting it to contemporary living.

To heighten the experiential quality, the exhibition incorporated subtle shifts in lighting and texture, moving from open gallery displays to more intimate vignette-style settings. This curatorial approach provided flexibility for touring formats, ensuring consistency while adapting to diverse venues across Asia.

The result was an exhibition that elevated Carl Hansen beyond product display, positioning the brand as a custodian of Scandinavian design culture.
