Artifort

Artifort, a renowned Dutch furniture manufacturer, has been a leader in innovative and iconic furniture design since its founding in 1890. The name "Artifort" stands for "art and comfort," principles that are evident in the brand's timeless, colourful, and distinctively shaped designs. Many of its pieces have become enduring symbols of modern design, celebrated for their quality and craftsmanship.

Focused initially on traditional furniture, Artifort embraced modernism after World War II under the creative guidance of interior and furniture designer Kho Liang Ie. This shift led to collaborations with visionary designers such as Theo Ruth, Gerrit Rietveld, and Pierre Paulin.

Creating history

Artifort 's legacy of design excellence is further enriched by partnerships with renowned designers like Geoffrey Harcourt, Monica Förster, Jasper Morrison, René Holten, and Patrick Norguet. At Artifort, the notions of design, quality, craftsmanship, and sustainability go hand-in-hand.

The brand aims to create furniture that lasts for generations, respecting the materials, the designer's vision, and the makers' craftsmanship. Artifort continues to push the boundaries of design, embracing new technologies and materials. Its ability to integrate beauty, practicality, and durability has allowed it to produce furniture with a soul, pieces that transcend trends while perfectly complementing the human form.

With over a century of experience and a long history of collaboration with leading designers, Artifort remains at the forefront of the global furniture design industry. It is no accident that Artifort's exclusive, delightful furniture is widely regarded as classic and featured in prestigious museum collections worldwide, including the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou.
