Redefining Furniture: How TAKT Is Building Beautiful, Sustainable Homes That Last

We often think of furniture as both functional and fleeting—items thrown out when trends change or spaces evolve. But what if what we choose to live with could be timeless, responsible, and thoughtfully made? That’s precisely what TAKT Copenhagen offers: furniture that respects the planet and the people who inhabit it.

Founded in 2019 in the heart of Danish design, TAKT has set out to do more than produce objects—it seeks to rethink how furniture is made, sold, and lived with, all for the benefit of people and planet  . Central to its ethos are Eco-System Design Principles—guiding every decision, from material choices to manufacturing methods  .

TAKT donates transparency as much as design. Each piece comes stamped with a carbon footprint—covering emissions across raw materials, production, packaging, shipping, even disposal. What remains is offset through trusted carbon removal projects aligned with the Oxford Offsetting Principles  . This level of accountability is rare, even in luxury design.

The brand’s direct-to-consumer model is another quiet revolution: by avoiding traditional retail, TAKT cuts storage, markup, and transport emissions. Its furniture arrives flat‑packed—elegant in its simplicity and efficient in its footprint  . Built to last, each piece is assembled with ease, and when worn parts eventually give way, they can be replaced, not discarded  .

TAKT’s credentials speak volumes: they are B Corp certified, with every product carrying the EU Ecolabel—a rare intersection of Scandinavian design, sustainability, and corporate responsibility  . All wood materials are FSC-certified, and finishes are applied with water-based lacquer to minimise environmental impact while enhancing timber grain and longevity  .

“Great design should be for everybody,” says founder Henrik Taudorf Lorensen. But TAKT goes further—their 70:20:10 innovation model ensures resources are split between what works today, what needs refinement, and new ideas yet to be tested—fueling a culture of learning, evolution, and meaningful progress  .

What TAKT designs are not is disposable. They are minimalist, modular—and above all, made to endure. From the graceful curves of the Soft Chair to the simplicity of the Cross Chair by Pearson Lloyd, each piece is a celebration of form rooted in function—and responsibility  .

Choosing TAKT isn’t just about filling your home—it’s about making a residence last, making impact count, and making design meaningful.
