Preserving local heritage and craftsmanship
We deeply value time. We deeply value the craftsmen’s gesture, the excellence of their know-how and their thrifty approach; we believe in preserving local heritage and in supporting local production. We are committed to being socially accountable, as we strive to minimise our environmental impact whilst supporting local communities. All our furniture and objects are designed and manufactured to stand the test of time and to be passed on. We don’t mass-produce furniture, nor do we produce waste: each piece of furniture is made to order. We value the eco-friendly practices of our decorators and craftsmen who create unique designs by using noble, recycled materials and certified woods… We work closely with them to improve by the day, operating in ways that enhance the environment and local communities.
Environmentally responsible
We strive as a company to embrace the ecological transition throughout our industry and work hand in hand with every atelier to make a positive impact on the way we produce and consume. We work together with our designers on improving their sustainable production practices, introducing more certified, organic & recycled materials and fabrics into our collections. The work of some of our great designers illustrate this commitment: Gustavo Neves spends time in the forest to find lost pieces of wood that he turns into jewels for the home; Etel‘s founder Etel Carmona who is one of the founding members of AMATA, the first company to obtain a public forest concession in Brazil, and led ETEL to become the first Brazilian furniture manufacturer certified by the rigorous and prestigious Forest Stewardship Council (FSC©). Last but not least, Noma Editions pairs the expertise of recycling specialists with the exceptional know-how of French craftsmen, thus bringing new life to recycled materials with minimal environmental footprint.
As a client or a supplier, you will be given the option to offset the carbon imprint of your shipment.
