Watch our talk at 3 Days of Design about Frama's new book Perception Form

Dezeen has teamed up with Danish design brand Frama and 3 Days of Design to host a talk about how good design can enhance everyday living to mark the launch of Frama's new book Perception Form.

The talk saw Dezeen's founder and editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs speak with Frama's founder and creative director Niels Strøyer Christophersen about his new book Perception Form.

The book features a selection of objects that have found their way into his life over the years and become special to him.

The talk explored how objects can become profoundly significant to people and how the best design can enhance day-to-day life. The conversation also touched on how the coronavirus pandemic has changed our relationship with the objects around us.

The event was streamed live from the Frama Studio Store in Copenhagen as part of the 3 Days of Design festival.

The talk marked the launch of Perception Form, which is published by Frama's publishing arm Frama Literature.

During the talk, Christophersen selected some of the objects included in the book, including a ceramic bowl that broke in his suitcase on the way back from Mexico and a small wooden bird that his dad made, and explained their significance to him.

Christophersen also explained how his fascination with objects led to him becoming a designer and how the pieces in the book relate to the products that Frama designs and produces.
