Craftsmanship with Purpose

I'm Noah Linkrans, a furniture maker and designer based in Stockholm, Sweden. I create bespoke pieces that combine traditional woodworking techniques with contemporary design principles — always with a focus on sustainability, longevity, and meaningful design.

My journey into woodworking began a few years ago, driven by curiosity and a desire to work with my hands. I started by reading books, taking online courses, and spending evenings learning the fundamentals: joinery, wood selection, and finishing techniques. With a background in User Experience Design and a degree from Hyper Island, I naturally brought elements of design thinking into my woodworking practice.

Each piece I build is guided by both form and function — crafted to be visually refined and built to last for generations. I recently began working with CAD modeling, allowing me to bring ideas to life with greater clarity.

Sustainability is an important part of my process. I work with high-quality materials, aim to minimize waste, and focus on creating furniture that’s meant to last, pieces that age well and gain meaning over time. I believe in creating furniture that tells a story — both mine as the maker and yours as the owner who will live with and use these pieces for years to come.

Design Philosophy

My design is shaped by the stillness of Japanese minimalism and the warmth of Scandinavian craft. I aim for quiet pieces that feel as natural as they function, embracing the principle of "just enough".

Sustainability guides my practice. By creating enduring pieces that resist trends, I aim to counter disposable design culture. My furniture is meant to age gracefully, developing patina over time.

In a world of mass production, I offer an alternative: objects made with care, designed to connect people to natural materials and thoughtful craftsmanship — furniture that provides not just utility but presence.

Sustainability

I source timber from responsibly managed forests and local suppliers whenever possible. Offcuts and wood waste are repurposed for smaller projects.

Craftsmanship

Every joint, curve, and surface receives meticulous attention. I employ traditional hand-tool techniques alongside modern machinery to achieve the highest quality results.

Longevity

I design and build with permanence in mind. My furniture is made to withstand daily use and to be passed down through generations, gaining character and patina along the way.
