BIELEFELDER WORKSHOPS IN HAMBURG
Handmade with passion
The Bielefeld workshops have been producing furniture of the highest quality for over 60 years. The owner-managed manufacturer from East Westphalia creates pieces with real dedication and a feel for the finer things. In the Bielefeld factory, masters of their trade still produce unique pieces that generate international enthusiasm. The special spirit of the factory comes from the fact that the majority of the approximately 120 employees were trained in-house from the very beginning. This creates a strong identification with both the products and the high quality standards.
The style of the Bielefeld workshops is characterized by a timeless, classic aesthetic, which is developed and continually refined in cooperation with renowned designers. The contemporary interpretation of traditional forms is at the heart of the designs. The interplay of design, materials and craftsmanship creates fascinating furniture whose value is appreciated by customers all over the world - often for generations - because it meets the highest standards and represents lasting value.
Upholstered furniture is the focus of BW; to match sofas and armchairs, sophisticated room concepts with tables, lamps and dining tables have been created in order to create harmoniously coordinated living environments.
OUR FAVORITE FROM BIELEFELDER WERKSTÄTTEN

TOTALLY ON TREND FROM BIELEFELDER WORKSHOPS
Dining Bank "Polo"
Polo Dining presents itself as a modern club sofa that confidently dispenses with the familiar dimensions of lounge furniture and allows you to sit upright thanks to the shallow seat depth. Its emphatically simple body shows off even generously patterned upholstery fabrics to perfection. Decorative throw pillows invite you to take a seat and give the whole thing a charming, playful touch.
THE FAST ONE BY WALTER KNOLL
shell chair "Kyo"
Everything revolves around them. The elegant shell chairs from Walter Knoll have been coveted for generations and have long since achieved cult status. Curved lines, gentle curves and striking seam patterns characterize the Kyo model as a typical piece of furniture from Walter Knoll. Designed by Pearson Lloyd, it won the Red Dot Design Award.
The Kyo shell chair envelops its owner in high-quality upholstery in a sweeping, elegant way – like the seat of a sports car. The shell, which is either covered in plastic or completely in leather on the outside, is easy to rotate. With a classic four-legged base. Or in the new versions with a harmonious five-legged base and castors for freedom of movement all around.
CARPETS BY WALTER KNOLL
Chimbuka Carpet
There is a Swahili saying: “A good beginning promises a good ending.” Chimbuka means sunrise, and the design reflects the colors of the sky: intense reds and blues as they shine in the morning or evening light.
Walter Knoll's carpets, created in collaboration with textile designer Helmut Scheufele, were inspired by the landscapes and colors of Africa. They draw their strength from the rich creativity of the African continent and are translated into timeless, knotted works of art.
