Dezeen Showroom: following 3 Days of Design in Copenhagen, we've rounded up ten products that were launched at this year's edition, alongside those that have been recently released by Nordic brands.
The following products are drawn from the catalogues of Scandinavian brands including Sweden-based furniture maker Asplund, Danish company Frandsen and Norwegian design studio Plesner Patterns.
From cosy blankets and playful daybeds to 3D-printed chairs and richly-coloured paints, the products are united by their Scandinavian origins and subsequent understated and refined designs.
Read on to see more products, lighting and furniture pieces by designers and brands based in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.
Paint brand Blēo – based in Copenhagen – has developed a catalogue of paints that all come in purpose-created boxes that have both practical and aesthetic purposes.
The paints are available in a wide spectrum of colours and tones, some of which are included as part of bespoke palettes curated by leading designers.
Kelp chair by Interesting Times Gang
A variety of brown seaweed called Nordic sugar kelp constitutes this biomorphic chair created by Swedish design studio Interesting Times Gang.
The aptly named Kelp chair is 3D-printed using a bioplastic containing the plant, and is biodegradable at the end of its lifespan, according to the brand.
Heritage throw by Plesner Patterns
Norwegian design studio Plesner Patterns looked to traditional Nordic carving and weaving craft practices when creating its soft Heritage throws.
Each blanket is made using 100 per cent merino wool. Users can choose between four colourways that all aim to evoke feelings of cosiness and comfort.

Sora light by Fung + Bedford for Frandsen
Danish brand Frandsen worked with UK-based design duo Fung + Bedford on a statement pendant lamp informed by the delicate nature of origami.
