FjordMoods’ pioneering model, 2050 Furniture, is a groundbreaking innovation in the world of sustainable production. With a deep commitment to environmentalism, social responsibility, and innovative design, Pieter Van Tulder’s visionary approach has resulted in an inspiring new production concept and the award-winning Sondre chair.
Developed by FjordMoods, a Norwegian furniture company run by Katrine and Pieter Van Tulder, 2050 Furniture is a manufacturing process focused on social and environmental sustainability. “It’s a new structure, a different way to produce furniture in Scandinavia,” Katrine explains.
Based by the Hardangerfjord, 2050 Furniture involves several local companies. The production relies solely on reclaimed wood from local waste streams, which is upcycled into high-quality furniture in a sheltered workplace without the use of toxic products.
Built on the principles of “Doughnut Economics”, focused on balancing human needs and the planet’s needs, 2050 Furniture is dedicated to community empowerment and avoiding exploitation of virgin resources. “Inclusion and care are our core values. We utilise unloved resources and create low-threshold employment opportunities. Our care for the environment and for people determines how we develop our production processes,” Pieter says.
The innovative furniture production and the Sondre chair have gained international attention and won several design awards in 2024. Made from 100 percent reclaimed wood, each chair is truly unique. Since reclaimed wood has different characteristics, every chair features an attractive blend of lines, colours, and textures.
“Sondre is more than a chair; it’s furniture with a purpose,” Katrine says. “A truly ethical alternative for those who want to make a positive impact on nature, people and the future.”
