overview

Founded in Copenhagen in 2006 Mater is a brand that associates itself with ethical and conscious design and furniture production. It collaborates with fresh talented artists from around the world to create high-end furniture and lighting pieces using methods that support the local traditional craft, the environment and the people who bring it to life.

Most of Mater’s products are inspired by the minimal designs of Scandinavian furniture, with warm organic tones that make them timeless and elegant. They are then combined with modern forms and patterns to create fine lines and precise details.

Mater means ‘mother’ in Latin. The name is the daily reminder of our small contribution to preventing the challenges ‘mother earth’ faces. Design influences how we as humans live our lives; it shapes values, culture and society. Unfortunately, we are increasingly aware that the choices made during design processes often have environmental consequences. However, as a manufacturer, we have the opportunity to rethink dubious practices and create ethical and sustainable design that minimises adverse social and environmental impacts.
