Bieke Casteleyn
Driven by a passion to create a dining table that challenges traditional standards, Belgian designer Bieke Casteleyn debuted her first Out of Line table in 2015. Out of Line, with its skillfully designed, organic contours, soon became an icon of Belgian refinement and craftsmanship. One that has since been translated into a carefully considered collection of functional objects: dining tables, coffee tables, desks, consoles, benches and more.
Out of Line invites dialogue: not only between people, but also between functio- nality, comfort and aesthetics. The perfectly balanced contours of this furniture line give a room sculptural identity, stepping away from traditional straight lines to evoke a softer, more fluid look. The objects in the Out of Line collection appear to be created intuitively – in which the result is as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional. Yet, the shapes are the product of Bieke’s research, experimentation and architectural insights. They inspire flexibility, while offering a surprising new take on the traditional table and its setting.
Whether it’s an intimate tête-à-tête at the dining table, a meeting at your desk or a cozy family get-together around the coffee table, the welcoming design of Out of Line evokes a strong sense of connection. The durable construction, materials and natural varnish of all Out of Line objects make them suitable for everyday use, inspired by a modern lifestyle. For years – and even lifetimes.
