20 years ellips design

We registered our business on 1 November 2001. Quite fresh, quite idealistic and, yes, okay, also a little naïve. In the last 20 years, we have learned a lot, gained experience and developed further. And yet we can hardly believe that we have been "on the road" with our small business for so long. And here goes a very big thank you to you, our customers, interested parties, supporters and friends. THANK YOU. We are so glad that you exist!

Lifeblood, handicrafts and modern techniques.

We have been developing, producing and distributing our furniture and accessories for many years, and we are especially delighted to combine objects of everyday use with unique design. It is a joy to know that our products serve as both daily companions and artistic display pieces. All of our products are manufactured in a workshop in rural Petershagen/Weser. They leave our workshop just as we would like to receive them– as beautiful products of the highest quality.

Environmentally friendly and sustainable.

We exclusively use birch plywood (multiplex) from a Finnish family business that has been active in the lumber production business for 100 years, a business spanning three generations. Ecological aspects are considered, and great value is placed upon sustainability. In this way, over a million seedlings are planted annually through the company, a testament to the sustainability of our products!
