NEW: CTO lighting - Hepworth
HEPWORTH wall light stands as a luminous testament to the artistic prowess of Dame Barbara Hepworth. Drawing inspiration from Dame Barbara’s iconic sculptures, renowned for their curvaceous, abstract representations of the human form, this light fitting embodies a similar aesthetic. Its elongated shape, punctuated by a delicate central line, mirrors the soft contours that made Hepworth’s work so distinct
CTO lights can be seen in the showrooms of Bert van Hoecke (Stockholm) and Artilleriet (Göteborg)

Spotlight: Folk Chair - Pedrali
Folk collection accentuates the quest for simplicity and durability. Consisting of only 7 elements this chair can be repaired in a minute. Modular and sustainable - we think it is brilliant.
The die-casted aluminium ring allows for easy repair and additional strength. It even creates a nice design feature by chosing a contrasting color on the chair.
Built from solid ash wood - the aluminium ring holds the seat and backshell, which allows visual lightness and maximum durability. The bent plywood backrest ensures maximum comfort.
Cane material is back again, you see it in seat and backshells. Often we see quality problems in highly trafficked areas. Sagging seats and even holes. Pedrali has woven in a nylon yarn
With a weight of only 4,4 kg this is an ultra strong and lightweight chair.
Also available as barstool in heights 65, 75 and 79cm.
Choose seats in cane for maximum airiness and elegance, wood or a large collection fabrics.
