Founded in 2014 by Mia and Torben Koeb, Woud brings over 30 years’ experience in high quality, honest, and modern craftsmanship. Inspired by forward-thinking concepts that combine the simplicity of Scandinavian tradition with a distinctly modern creativity, this Danish design brand extends their innovative offerings across lighting, furniture, textiles, and accessories to provide timeless pieces with thoughtful attention to detail. 

Woud seeks to encourage people around the world to create beautiful spaces that are also comfortable, functional, and distinctly personal. They incorporate recycled materials into their pieces whenever possible, and make efforts to reduce their carbon footprint through minimal packaging, sustainable design features, and a commitment to partnering with manufacturers and suppliers who meet high ethical standards for their own production processes and fair employee conditions. Through their practice of “aesthetic sustainability,” Woud crafts purposeful products that are designed to evoke emotion and stand the test of time, with an additional focus on reducing furniture waste, and its harmful effects on our environment. 

Through their Woud Sustainable Lab, Woud endeavors to continue their progress toward a greener, more environmentally-responsible future by empowering a select group of suppliers and designers to collaborate on new means of incorporating more sustainable materials and production processes into the Woud collections. Driven to discover and integrate the latest ideas from talented designers around the world, each Woud product explores new possibilities in form, function, and material to offer high quality pieces intended to comfort and inspire for years to come.

According to Would, the world outside our doors is complicated enough as it is, so the home should be a place for comfort and well-being. Modern design can provide and create such feelings. Their take on simple expressions and functionalities in their range of furniture and accessories should make the home a little less complicated and a little more beautiful. To do this, Woud collaborates with some of the brightest upcoming and experienced designers from a wide range of countries. All the way from Japan to Canada. Each designer has his or her own expression but together they share a modern interpretation of the Scandinavian simplicity.
