Hello. We are Four Design. We help designers and architects get the very best out of the built environment. Our designs connect people and spaces in the most considerate way possible. We love great ideas, and when ours meet yours, extraordinary things happen. Reducing our environmental footprints is essential to both of us. With a little help from our FDA design philosophy and all of your brilliant ideas, we can do this. Together. We want engaging furniture that enables us to feel connected, to be more in balance, and to be better at our jobs. Spaces with choice for head-down work,...

We need to oppose consumerism through timeless design, quality, and longevity. We need innovative, reactive and environmentally responsible furniture solutions that sustain in an ever changing environment.

Calm, Clever & Considerate Colours created by Sharon Fisher
