Sustainability comes home at Soul & Tables

Fall in love with the beauty of natural wood and ethically sourced, sustainable, eco-friendly furniture, crafted with passion and built to last

Investing in a piece of furniture that you love, and will treasure for years to come, is an exciting moment, but with so many different brands and stores to choose from, where do you start?

We know that your home is a place of warmth, comfort, and peace, and that you care about what you put in it.

At Soul & Tables, each and every table, chair, bed, console, desk, and more, represents authenticity, is ethically sourced, eco-friendly and showcases the very best contemporary design.

Sustainability and innovation are at the heart of what we do. We believe that great wood furniture should not come at a compromise. Our products use wood sourced from responsibly, carefully managed forests compliant with European Timber Regulations and Forest Law Enforcement regulations.

Our stunning teak wood pieces are made from Forest Stewardship Council-certified wood sourced from Java, Indonesia, where we work closely with the government to replant trees and limit our own usage.

This also means that each plank of wood is as unique as the tree it came from, with stunning variations in texture, colour, and grain that give the resulting piece a one-of-a-kind character.

We also use French and Serbian oak that is sourced from European well-managed forests where there is a commitment to long-term sustainability and the environment.

The finishing touches are equally important and our products come with high-quality, lasting mechanisms from Blum, Pöttker and Hettich. These complement the convenient designs of extendable dining tables, push-to-open drawers, and softclosing drawers and doors.

Meticulously and lovingly handcrafted by our team of skilled artisans who share our vision for environmental sustainability, your Soul & Tables product pays tribute to the beauty of mother nature and is built to last, to pass on from one generation to the next.

5am

An early riser, I’m up between 4-5am every morning without needing an alarm. I head out into the community with my four dogs to do an entire lap. This is my daily routine and it’s the only time in my busy day that I can find the time for exercise.

6am

I make breakfast for myself and the dogs (my wife is still asleep) and take the opportunity to check emails and plan for the invariably busy day ahead.

8am

Time to head to the office. The Dubai traffic is crazy these days, so a journey that used to take just a quarter of an hour by car, now takes at least 45 minutes; so I head out as soon as I can.

9.30am

Morning coffee in hand, I schedule a quick catch-up with my business partner and tackle any issues that might have arisen at the various sites we are working on.

11am

It’s time for our daily staff meeting - and a mid-morning snack. This is my favorite part of the day, where we brainstorm and strategise about ideas and processes that can improve the systems we use in Creative Wrap across our four international locations.

1pm

Lunch is delivered. I am so bad at meal prepping that I either usually end up grabbing a business lunch at the local bar or ordering in from Deliveroo – which is normally a healthy option.

3pm

Afternoons are our busiest time in our main showroom at

Dubai Investments Park and is when I get to meet and greet customers, interior designers, architects, etc. It’s definitely an all-hands-on-deck time of day and I love talking people through the creative solutions we offer.

5pm Home time. Sharjah-bound traffic congestion on my route home kicks in around 6pm so I always make a point to try and get out of the office before then. After a busy day, I want to make the most of my evening.

6.30pm

My wife arrives home and we make a point to switch off our respective electronic devices in order to spend some quality time together without constant background interruption.

8pm

This is much needed ‘me time’ and a chance to wind down. My wife heads out to walk the dogs while I run a bath. Unless there’s something super urgent to attend to, I usually end up putting on a documentary… and then fall asleep.
