FORM & REFINE
IN PRAISE OF WOOD

In all our furniture designs there is our love for wood - it is our favourite material. It is organic. It just grows out of the ground and provides us with fresh air as it grows. If the trees are felled responsibly and the wood is processed sustainably, the CO₂ emissions from wooden furniture are low.

TO THE PRODUCTS

It is a material that requires expertise to work with, and it is constantly changing. It radiates warmth, life and liveliness. It expands or contracts, depending on the environment. And it gains additional beauty with time.


Damsbo Forest is a huge Danish forest on the island of Funen, where the sea meets the forest and the plant life merges with the rest of nature. The forest is partly on the mainland and partly in the coastal area, towards Jutland - a great location for an outstanding forest area. The forest, which is at least 700 years old, is over 200 hectares in size.

FROM
DENMARK

The Damsbo forest has always been managed very carefully. With sustainable forest management - with natural regeneration over all the years - it is a very natural process that a few trees are felled every year.

DISCOVER NOW

OnlyForm & Refine has a certain number of cubic metres available per year. It will never and can never come to mass production in the forest. We can guarantee a sustainable product from Denmark, with a workshop close by.

We also demand an assurance from Damsbo Forest that the trees are growing in the best conditions and that the forest is not overused. This gives us a close connection to every tree that is harvested. It also serves our highest goal and greatest passion in an environmentally friendly way: to have the best and purest materials available.
