Thorup is an independent Danish design studio dedicated to crafting furniture, lighting, and objects that elevate the everyday experience with exceptional quality.
CRAFTED IN DENMARK
Rooted in sustainable values, Thorup produces the Patrone lighting series in Denmark, emphasizing local craftsmanship and precision. This close-to-home approach supports a mindful production process, reflected in the quality of each piece and a commitment to made-to-order excellence.
CERTIFIED WITH THE EU ECOLABEL
The Noel Chair Series holds the prestigious EU Ecolabel - serving as our seal of approval that we uphold an unwavering commitment to sustainability across every aspect of our chairs' lifecycle – from conscientious material sourcing to meticulous production, prioritizing repairability and recyclability at every turn.
A STUDY OF WOOL
Leveraging the principles of sustainable thinking, Thorup is dedicated to implementing pioneering initiatives to reduce waste of materials. For the Noel Chairs we work with premium Faroese sheep wool – pure and undyed, known for being particularly hardy and exceptionally durable. Our wool flag halyard begins its journey with the sheep’s who walks freely in the untamed and wild nature of the Faroe Islands.
A NOTE FROM DESIGNER KASPER THORUP
»I approach the development of my collections with a dedicated emphasis on ensuring that each piece holds a meaningful place in everyday life. This principle also extends to my careful selection of materials, aiming to extract the best qualities from diverse elements like steel, wood, brass or natural textiles. This exploration allows me to uncover their unique character and potential, contributing to the creation of designs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also deeply resonant with their intended purpose.
