Schneid Studio at 3daysofdesign

This June, Schneid Studio presents a focused selection of works during 3daysofdesign Copenhagen as part of Deoron's curated exhibition on Papirøen.

While modest in scale, the presentation brings together two works that represent key aspects of the studio's practice: the newly introduced Stucco Table Lamp and selected pieces from the Facet Collection. Though differing in material, function and form, both reflect an ongoing interest in craftsmanship, material exploration and the close relationship between design and making.

Material as Method

Across its collections, Schneid Studio approaches making as an integral part of the design process. Many pieces are developed and produced within the studio itself, while specialised techniques are realised in collaboration with local craftspeople and manufacturers.

This close relationship between design and production allows material behaviour, experimentation and craftsmanship to actively shape the development of each object. The presentation in Copenhagen reflects this approach through two distinct material languages: glazed ceramic and porcelain.

Light and Atmosphere

Produced in small batches by the studio's ceramic team, the Stucco Table Lamp explores the relationship between material presence and atmospheric light. Its sculptural ceramic body and glossy glazed surface create a soft interplay of reflection, colour and illumination, allowing the object to shift between functional light source and sculptural presence.

As Schneid Studio's first table lamp, Stucco marks a new chapter within the studio's lighting collection while continuing a long-standing interest in objects that exist between utility and sculpture.

Geometry and Repetition

Alongside it, the Facet Collection explores how a single geometric gesture can shape an entire family of objects.

Defined by rhythmic faceted surfaces, the collection transforms familiar archetypes through repetition, proportion and form rather than ornament. Produced in porcelain, the pieces establish a shared visual language across vessels and tableware, creating continuity through geometry itself.

A Shared Language

Although the two collections differ in scale and application, both emerge from the same underlying approach. Material, process and form are considered simultaneously, allowing each object to develop its own character while remaining connected to a broader design language.

Together, the Stucco Table Lamp and Facet Collection offer insight into an evolving practice shaped by curiosity, craftsmanship and an enduring dialogue between making and design.
