Christian and Jade announced as curators of The Mindcraft Exhibition 2026

The Mindcraft Project is pleased to announce the design duo Christian and Jade as curators of The Mindcraft Exhibition 2026, to be held from September 23rd – 27that Charlottenborg in central Copenhagen.

Christian and Jade represent a contemporary wave of Danish designers who are re-contextualising the role of craft and material research within the design field today.

They have brought their own hands-on experience across materials and scale into their curatorial vision for this year’s exhibition; drawing a focus on the inherit qualities of natural materials, a devotion to craft, and the importance of tacit knowledge built through the act of making.

The Mindcraft Project
Elevating designers and makers from Denmark

Since 2008, The Mindcraft Project has worked to elevate Danish designers and makers by showcasing them to a global audience.

For more than a decade, The Mindcraft Project presented Danish craft and design in annual exhibitions in Milan. Today, The Mindcraft Project is a digital platform with a considerable international following. The platform offers exclusive designer profiles, videos, digital exhibitions, interviews, and articles that highlight designers and makers from Denmark.

We believe that the artistic, explorative and experimental design practices serve as fundamental research in our society. In a meeting between design, craftsmanship, art and technology, the Danish designers and makers in this particular field address future challenges and opportunities, and inspire to new ways of thinking, making, and living.
