Warande – pièce-unique furniture with wood from the Parc Royal Brussels

For the 2022 edition of Brussels Design September we have the pleasure to present our latest collaboration with the designer/makers of studio PART. Together with craftsmen from the Sonian Wood Coop workshop, studio PART has developed the WARANDE collection.
WARANDE is pièce-unique furniture made from the recently replanted royal chestnut trees of the Warandepark Brussels. WARANDE is about a unique, noble resource turned into monumental, long-lasting objects. WARANDE is cultural and natural heritage transformed into vision.
