Woodlabo is a passionate team who design and manufacture interior lighting in wood. Spacecraft from a borderless world, an invitation to travel between nature and space. Woodlabo, set up in Finland in 2010 and now based in France, shares a love of human values, simplicity, challenges and expertise. Woodlabo takes on architects’ bespoke projects: rescaling, lighting, fitting, adaptation for outdoors and creating new forms developed from standard models. The lights are designed to produce minimum offcuts, which are then reused to heat the workshop. We only use wood from European sustainable forests. Packaging for the lights is also wooden. Our partners, whose expertise complements our own, are all located within a radius of 300 km. www.woodlabo.com
