About
AKASTA – Furniture and Objects
Based in Stockholm, Sweden, Akasta is a contemporary furniture brand that creates emotionally elevated objects designed to bring life, confidence, and personality into any space. Our bold, sculptural designs blur the line between art and function, making each piece a statement in its own right.
Akasta takes its name from the Acasta Gneiss, the oldest known rock on Earth—over 4 billion years old. A rare and valuable relic, it has shaped our understanding of the planet’s origins. Like its namesake, Akasta designs furniture that is bold, enduring, and timeless.
Each piece is crafted to last, made in small editions by artisans in Finland, Italy, and our Stockholm studio. We embrace raw materials, expressive forms, and meticulous craftsmanship, creating objects that demand attention and stand the test of time.
Akasta is more than furniture—it’s a fusion of history, materiality, and emotional connection.
