Founded in 2009 by Dutch designer Joost van Veldhuizen, VanJoost gained international fame with his iconic table de-sign ‘HeelGroot’. The design of this handmade table is ge-nius in its simplicity; the extreme length shows exceptional knowledge of the craft. Because of the use of recycled con-struction wood from old buildings, each table ‘HeelGroot’ is truly unique. The material is always the starting point in his designs; an artistic interplay of design and art. By using basic forms, he aims to bend the norm and encourages to think beyond established frameworks and standards. With his eye for form, proportion and craftsmanship VanJoost has become a designer label that enjoys international fame and guarantees quality of high artistic level.

‘Bend the norm.’
