applicata was born from a deep love for the Scandinavian design tradition—where timeless aesthetics meet uncompromising quality. Since 2005, our mission has been to bring refined, authentic design into everyday homes through elegant simplicity, honest materials, and a strong connection to Nordic craftsmanship.
Founded by René and Mette Løt, applicata began as a design agency focused on helping designers bring their visions to life. Over time, the couple’s passion for great design led them to develop their own pieces and take on the production side as well. What started as a bridge between foreign designs and the Scandinavian market has grown into a brand in its own right—crafting and curating beautiful pieces that reflect the very best of Scandinavian home decor.
Our products are made in Scandinavia by family-owned workshops that value tradition and care about the environment. These skilled artisans take pride in using every piece of wood to its fullest, ensuring minimal waste and maximum beauty. All wood used is FSC-certified, guaranteeing responsible forestry and traceability. Each item we offer tells a story—not just of modern Nordic style, but of the hands and hearts that shaped it.
Most of our collections are available in both natural, minimalist finishes that allow the wood’s structure to shine through, and in vibrant colours that bring a playful energy to your home. This dual approach gives you the freedom to create a space that feels truly your own—whether you're drawn to quiet elegance or bold expression.
At applicata, we hope that our work will not only beautify your home but also inspire a deeper appreciation for lasting design. Our commitment is to quality, tradition, and the enduring power of good craftsmanship—principles that define everything we do.
