Designing a circular future, one creation at a time.
At Artowa, we transform waste into timeless design. Collaborating with architects, designers, and businesses to create custom pieces that are sustainable by default.
Meet Grounds Up
Artowa was born from Grounds Up, our parent company dedicated to upcycling coffee waste and other material streams into valuable raw materials. Grounds Up focuses on collecting and processing waste, while Artowa takes the next step: transforming those materials into premium, circular design objects.
Together, we close the loop. From waste collection to material innovation to timeless design.
Studio Achoo
In Collaboration with Studio Achoo
Every Artowa planter is more than just a product,it’s a piece of thoughtful design, brought to life by Belgian designer Bart Van Houcke, founder of Studio Achoo.
Known for his sculptural approach and refined sense of materiality, Bart merges form, function, and sustainability in a way that feels both grounded and elevated. His designs for Artowa embrace the natural imperfections and textures of upcycled materials, resulting in objects that feel organic yet architectural.
With Studio Achoo, Bart explores the intersection between waste, craft, and innovation — and his collaboration with Artowa is no exception. Each planter reflects his vision: bold, timeless forms that honour the story of their material origin.
