Fairytale furniture for children from Mathy By Bols

Since mass has become our constant companion, I’m afraid to open the refrigerator. The blandness pours out of interior designs, apartments and houses. Everything is based on a one-size-fits-all approach to production, technological processes and, above all, the audience. Fairytale furniture for children have also become such a shoddy product to some extent.

And it all comes from the fact that factories have similar designs and technical drawings, which will then be automatically cut by cnc machines. Lazy, low-risk and standard utility items for the children’s room are the norm, only does it satisfy us to some extent?

I think that everyone who has a bit of empathy, style and loves design is bitter about this turn of events. Because, after all, it is possible to be different, bolder, braver, with a clear edge over other brands. In my search for otherness, I took a break from the earth for a while and found the Mathy By Bols manufactory.

It is absolutely something, what stands out in the market and clearly wants to break out of the established patterns of the template. And it is the template that dominates the majority of companies that do not want to impose their own style and approach to the production of fabulous furniture for children.

And now only back to the land of fantasy….

As you already know, today’s theme is fairy tale, fantasy and breaking conventions. So, following this theme, you will come across many original brands that grow out of the thoughts of their owners. These are not mass-produced cream cakes, but decently conceived products created from scratch. I love such unconventional solutions, which is why I would like to present all the more Mathy By Bols.

To understand such sensual and peculiar design of children’s furniture, one must go back to the years when we sought surrealism and detachment from reality in every object in our home. Those who cannot grasp this will not see the relationship between the two aspects. This is a nod to our understanding of childhood fantasy, the desire to hide from the whole world and, above all, magic, which as we know did not always touch us.

Fairy tale furniture for children – European pedigree and world perception

I think a lot of the level of design of these unique items takes place in the heads of the brand’s group of designers. They are not people by chance, and each of their drawings and sketches, is a consciously imprinted mark of quality. Absurd, templated, unoriginal and photocopied concepts are out of the question. The fact that the furniture is designed and manufactured in Europe is of very high importance.

Both for me and for the company itself, which is one of the units that does not resist cheap mass production. It is conscious, tangible, and for me personally such manufactures make sense. Once upon a time, thousands of such artisanal wonders were hatched on our continent, so all the more so today, we should respect such an approach to creation. Because this brand doesn’t really sell, it clearly creates fabulous furniture for children. Money and success, of course, is inherent in such ventures, but the main idea is the element of fantasy.

Creating a brand is the work of a whole group of people

To this end, the company has invited a group of designers to join its journey, who decide on this fairy-tale image. Here, no coincidence, and every detail is from the world of the child. Everything is consulted, not only between the designers, but also the craftsmen.Everyone contributes their share, to create a tangible fantasy land. The company employs designers, both men and women, to further diversify its offerings.

And it is precisely important that the designs of fairy tale children’s furniture consist of the dreams of many people. The more individuals give a small piece of their imagination, the more this world will become a return to the past. This is the key, which has been forgotten by many companies, going so much into mass production and lack of understanding of all these aspects. What is important is often elusive, and such a production philosophy requires awareness of the owner himself.

Fairytale furniture for children – special designs that captivated me

Certainly something that distinguishes this brand, from others of its kind in the world, is the extreme simplicity that defines it. The items are not extremely exaggerated into fantasy and over-sugared, such as our other brand Circu. In fact, it can be said that you can see here a clearly outlined shabbiness of old craftsmanship combined with the original designs of the people. Without unnecessary cloying stories, powder and self-indulgence.

Without the bloated colors native to social media, the worn-out compositions of pseudo-designers and all the pickup of reality. This is authentic Belgian chocolate, which is simple yet very tasty. It is not an oversweetened product, because it has a lot of dark and real chocolate in it. Which consists of original cocoa. And such is the fabulous Mathy By Bols children’s furniture, which tastes like the first chocolate bite of our childhood.

The house of our dreams

The first fire goes to the house, which can be at the same time a bedroom, a play area, or a two-story bed for siblings. And this is the answer, to our dreams of the first years of functioning in this world. I don’t think there is a person who has dreamed of hiding in a tree, or in their own little house, somewhere on high ground. Maybe the piece of furniture itself as a cottage is today a very commoditized object, while everything depends on how it is designed and made. As for me, it Ferrari Among children’s furniture.

And these accoutrements, are exceptional. As I mentioned before, in no way oversweetened, but with visible charm and class. They are also not too simple, like furniture straight out of a kindergarten. In my opinion, it is a correlation between good quality material, the peculiar sense of the designers and, above all, great workmanship. And this is what I expect from elegant furniture for children’s fairytale world.

Many directions to create a piece of furniture

I also dreamed of this when I was a little boy, so I am all the more pleased today to welcome Mathy By Bols to our domestic market. I love to stand out with my offerings, which is why I am constantly looking for such original items. I am as happy as a child with each new manufactory I manage to show for my customers.

And the house itself, is very well thought out, according to the requirements and dreams of children, which assume many variations. First of all, it is a place to sleep, which at the same time looks like a small house. A shelter, an asylum and a magical piece of furniture for a child’s room, which can be expanded in different directions.

When necessary, we can create a two-story bed for two children. It is climbed by a ladder, which is made at a comfortable angle for ascent. The descent itself is already a typical children’s fantasy, because in addition to descending the ladder, you can slide down the slide. The slide itself can be placed frontally, as well as be brought out from the side. The options are many, but one thing is for sure – it’s my childhood dreams that impress me.

Fairytale furniture for children – do it yourself!

The manufacturer loves creativity, so there is a lot of self-reliance, initiative and functional perception of the world here. One such feature, is the ability to paint the wooden parts yourself. So, at the request of the customer, the manufactory sends the product without painting. So that parents, sometimes together with their child, decide for themselves the colors of these unique products.

This is not insignificant, because doing simple things together unites the family and gives a sense of satisfaction from the work. This is one of the key elements in building the security of the children’s world. The proximity of the parent, as well as the house itself, are two symbols that determine the comfort of the youngest household members.

Handmade for the home craftsman?

Naturally, you can also be tempted to assemble these original furniture yourself. However, I proceed from the assumption that this work should be done by a professional. Unless we love to tinker, twist and build, then it is sheer pleasure. It all depends on how we perceive the creation of a fabulous room for children. And while you can probably find a lot of cheaper, very similar shapes, forms and objects on the market, don’t let the price alone fool you.

Because here the cost of these peculiar pieces of furniture consists of several extremely important aspects. Those who do not understand them can go for mass items that have little to do with craftsmanship. Handmade is the quality, material, human hands, tradition and heart put into every detail of the products. A value that cannot be clearly classified, measured or weighed. And even less to regulate in matters of price alone.

Fairytale children’s furniture – details that make a difference

The Mathy By Bols brand is PEFC certified, which is inextricably linked to the harvesting of wood. So if everyone is thinking about the sustainable use of a natural resource like wood, they should pay attention to this very symbol. Wood sourced to create furniture by Mathy By Bols, is mainly from Scandinavia, where special attention is paid to tree growth and conscious use for the economy. Also, the varnishes used are virtually chemical-free, using water-based inks. Therefore, it is their material, recyclable in its entirety. This is very conscious and thoughtful.

Sustainability also means locating the manufactory in the Belgian countryside. The optimization of heating in the company’s buildings, the use of advanced heating systems and the use of waste puts this company high in the hierarchy of brands that look closely at ecology and the problems of today’s world. When we think that this is unimportant, we are not quite right in my opinion. Because all we have to do is multiply this by hundreds of thousands of small factories and we have a significant sum that has a final impact on the environment.

Small differences that make a big difference

And these are the details that make the difference, adding up to the overall complexity of the issue. These are the challenges of the modern world, which to some extent is heading for degradation. Mathy By Bols’ way of thinking is simple and unambiguous – see what we do and that it is consistent with what we say.

That’s why when we look for exceptional brands, it’s important to pay attention to whether they are aligned with their beliefs. Because, as we know, this doesn’t always go hand in hand, with business, earnings, the desire to scale the company, or ultimately global recognition.

Create a real company….

Currently, it is no problem to make fabulous furniture for children. Because there are draftsmen, designers, cnc machines, technological processes, or extensive outsourcing available. Therefore, it’s easy to create, but to create according to tradition and beliefs is no longer so easy. The design will accept everything, the materials will also get done, so today to make a piece of furniture is no longer a great initiative. Only details will save real, small family manufactures from the masses.

So let’s look for the prevalence of small seemingly insignificant details, which ultimately make up the beauty, as well as the originality of useful objects.Our children’s bedroom must be a place of real comfort, asylum and fairy tale memories that WE must guarantee them. Let’s not forget this when thinking about creating their fairytale place to function every day. Which I wish you from the bottom of my heart!
