The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Design , had one of the stand-out student stands of the  Stockholm Furniture Fair . Wittily entitled New Bacon, it was styled by a team of six students (Mads Sætter-lassen, Eva Fly, Sanna Movafagh, Emil Krøyer, Mathias Wiik and Celina Hirsch Rolmar) to look like a butcher’s shop with products and information tags hanging from butcher’s hooks in a white-tiled environment. Twelve students had their work featured, including the Archilleus – Changing Habits Chair, by Harald Hermanrud , constructed from one single piece of rope: On a similar theme, Bending Days by Nanna Day Larsen, is made from hand-bent steel that is then welded and powder coated, to create a piece of furniture inspired by textiles and with an expression of lightness, that is nonetheless strong enough to hold the weight of the sitter
