Explanation:
"design farve" is often used in Danish as you would say in English "fashion colours". It's a bit different from "fashion" though, it implies some kind of research of colours /some kind of "style/good taste" in selecting the colours.

It is "farve" in abbreviated form.

I did some checking to be 100 % sure:

See for example this about wool plaids and the different colours that are available.
