Our Story
Since 1975, we've been passionate about bringing Bauhaus principles to life, creating furniture that's both beautiful and affordable.
Marcel Olsen founded our company out of frustration with the lack of reasonably priced, high-quality furniture. Inspired by the Bauhaus movement's core philosophy of "form follows function," we design furniture that prioritises usability.
Clean lines, geometric shapes, and a focus on natural materials define our aesthetic. Every element serves a purpose, ensuring our furniture is comfortable, easy to care for, and perfectly suited for your needs.

Form Follows Function
We believe in good design. Bauhaus furniture prioritises functionality and good quality. Think simple, clean designs that perfectly suit their purpose, while celebrating the natural beauty of the materials.
We Respect Our Planet
We are taking positive steps to reduce our environmental impact. Through sustainable practices, our furniture is not only environmentally responsible but also enhances the well-being of our planet and customers alike.
Competitive Pricing
We offer great pricing without compromising quality by minimising costs and waste. By collaborating with designers and manufacturers, we deliver furniture that meets your expectations without the added mark-up.
"Great design should be accessible to everyone. Our mission is to provide good-quality, affordable furniture that sustainably enhances daily living."
