STORIES

Creating iconic and comfortable furniture  

Each Artifort piece shows us that good design transcends both time and trends, evolving into timeless piece that uses enjoyed an cherished, hopefully for a very long time. The Artifort collection throughout its rich history has been nothing but iconic. Many Artifort pieces share a sinuous and expressive quality that is surprisingly harmonious, almost sculptural in nature. While at the same time, there are pieces with a certain quiet power that is pared-down to the essential, exuding simplicity and timelessness.
