Functionals offers a collection of furniture and home goods designed exclusively for the brand by innovative designers. Each has his or her distinctive perspective, but they share a bold aesthetic, commitment to craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
Functionals was launched in 2009 as a web-shop by siblings Ad and Simon van Esch, who grew up immersed in the design world under their father, Henk van Esch, the founder of the van Esch manufacturing group. Functionals, a logical expansion of the van Esch siblings' interest in design, started with only two pieces, the Bonsai candle holder and Swivel Floor light.
The Functionals collection has since grown to include tables, seating, lighting, tableware, and accessories. Today, Functionals works from a factory/showroom in the Dutch village of Goirle. The company is equally detail-driven when it comes to manufacturing, packaging, and delivering their unconventional products, which are made well and made to last.
Haute Living is proud to be a certified US dealer of Functionals furniture.
