SPRING / SUMMER COLLECTION 2025
“We had a dream and a mission as early as 2009”
Lübech Living was founded in 2006. We work within the business of interior, lifestyle, and home decoration. Back in 2009, we turned our full attention to sustainability. Lübech Living designs and produces our own brands OOhh and OOhhx. We work as the European distributor for Vance Kitira Candles, and we are the Nordic distributor for the well-known Italian brand UASHMAMA
The OOhh Collection is a unique combination of stylish and timeless Danish design, produced with the use of specially selected sustainable materials. All OOhh products are produced within our fairtrade project in Sri Lanka and are handmade to reduce CO2 consumption.
OOhhx is a unique collection in the OOhh range, which is designed and produced with the same values as our OOhh Collection. We produce in countries such as Sri Lanka, Vietnam, and Europe. Common to all our products is that they are all handmade, developed from sustainable materials, and part of a sustainable production. And, of course, always with that extra OOhh detail.
Our customers are always our first priority.

Lübech Living only work with a few suppliers as we prioritize a very close collaboration with each of them. This way we can follow the process closely and make sure that our products are produced under good social conditions and in an eco-friendly way.
Lübech Living celebrate 15 years as an environmentally and socially responsible company. We started our sustainable journey seven years before the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals were launched. Long before the world began to focus on sustainability.
To mark this special event we wanted to design something special. Therefore, we designed the Jubilee anniversary collection. A tribute to and a combination of two of OOhh’s most revolutionary sustainable developments over the past 15 years.
The anniversary design is also a symbol of Lübech Living’s ongoing commitment and eternal quest, to create sustainable and beautiful interiors. Interiors created with social responsibility as an alternative to the industry’s conventional offerings.
Care for TomorrowShape the Future!
In 2018 we realized that despite of our sustainable effort, our production took part in creating 20 tons of paper waste per year. This enticed us to look into new possibilities of re-using our own offcuts.
The result was a new generation of sustainable paper, which we named Zero Waste paper. The softness of the paper is ideal when creating structures and patterns, and we are proud to expand the collection with new designs in the SS25 collection.
We use natural latex to make our Zero Waste paper pots and vases waterproof.
Inspired by ‘The Hamptons’ lifestyle, OOhh has created the Hampton collection. A lifestyle that refers to the exclusive and charming area of Long Island, New York, known for its relaxed luxury and sleek designs. It is a blend of casual summer vibes and sophisticated elegance. It’s about high quality, but in a relaxed and harmonious way. The ‘Hampton’ style is often associated with stripes, simple lines, natural textures, and light, airy designs that feel fresh and bright. The colors are white, beige, sand, and soft pastels, and materials such as wood, stone, and recycled materials are popular. It signals exclusivity without being ostentatious.
Inspired by these interest and this lifestyle, OOhh has developed their new pebble paper. Pebble paper is based on the OOhh’s Zero Waste Paper, but with a new multidimensional technique, creating a pattern that makes us think of softness, volume, sandy beaches, and small pebbles.

In the pursue to reduce the use of paint Lübech Living / OOhh Collection proudly introduced the Wood’z collection in FW23. The collection is zero waste paper products with a playful wood dust surface, and this season we have added new beautiful members to the collection.
Using excess wood from the local carpenter industry in Sri Lanka we create the finest wood dust in different colors. By mixing different sorts of local wood we can create several different colors and we have selected our favorite ones.

Without the OOhh women project in Sri Lanka we had no paper pots. The project counts hours, days and years working together making the OOhh recycled paper project a success. The initial goal was to give less privileged women in Sri Lanka the opportunity to work from home, enabling them to earn an income, while taking care of their children, and pay them a fair price.
We started with a small group of women and today the group of women involved counts 200+. Throughout the years we have build a strong relation, knowing many of the women since 2010.
We really appreciate the skilled women in Sri Lanka, and Lübech Living is also very grateful that the project has been SEDEX certified. The certification is a testament and guarantee for the importance of the working facilities and conditions for the women.

Recycled paper has followed OOhh since 2010. The first OOhh flowerpot was made from recycled paper, and we are still a major fan of the possibility to create stunning decor from such a strong sustainable and biodegradable material.
Recycled paper offers us an interesting base to develop timeless flowerpots and interior, and since we always add that extra ‘OOhh’ detail you will receive a unique piece of handicraft.

... already began in the childhood
Small communities showing creativity with their resources
As part of a dance company Susanne and Søren started travelling together as teenagers to destinations in Asia and Africa. Here they quickly discovered how small communities get the maximum out of the limited resources they have available. The use of recycled materials and the craftsmanship of the artisans fascinated them. When returning home they unfortunately also realized that the beautiful products they purchased did not fit into the Scandinavian interior style.
Sutainability and design must go hand in hand
Back in 2009, when Susanne and Søren decided to focus purely on sustainability and social responsibility they knew that they had to make beautiful Scandinavian designs to make it a success. Sustainability was not a valued asset at that time. Therefore they decided to show the world that sustainability and social responsibility can be united in beautiful design and this decision still defines the OOhh Collection today, 15 years later.
Our intention creates our reality
Because it made sense. After years of working and doing business in Asia, Susanne was eager to get away from the industrial business standards in Asia. Susanne wanted to work with something more meaningful matching her personal values.
Pure happiness shines from Susanne’s eyes when she looks back at everyday life in her childhood home. This is where she was inspired to get the maximum out of all resources and learned to share all of your leftover materials with others. She clearly remembers how the neighborhood came to the garage of the family home to pick up single bolts, nails and pieces of wooden boards. Her father always saved these thinking that every household should not have to buy a full box when only a few was needed.

Given our climate, there is a demand for conscious behavior, leading to the emergence of the mindful living trend. A trend that makes us decorate with keywords such as ‘conscious’, ‘eco-friendly’ and ‘timeless’. That reflects our collective desire to create beautiful spaces that are in harmony with the planet and built to last. With the change in trends, to a more reflective and mindful living, the OOhh Interior Collection now stands out stronger than ever before.
What has always been purpose driven designs from OOhh Collection, has now become a trend. Enjoy a large collection of truly stunning baskets, storage options, candle holders and décor items. All handmade by local artisans.

After we were contacted by the supplier we use today we decided to introduce ceramics. We wish to show the industry that it is possible to produce ceramics in a more sustainable way than the current industry standards.
Our supplier is ISO14001:2015 certified and they use their own solar energy to run the production as well as the water reusing system they have installed. All products are handmade. The result is a range of beautifully designed ceramic products providing additional possibilities.

In a world where outdoor spaces are more integrated to our well-being than ever, our collection reflects the growing trend of mindful living. Choosing our conscious outdoor pieces is not just a style statement; it’s a commitment to a greener, more responsible future.
The All Nature collection offer pots crafted from natural latex and recycled wood dust collected from the local carpenters in Sri Lanka. The wooddust enriches us with a beautiful tactile surface that embody the perfect union of style and sustainability.
The All Nature collection is perfect to combine with the OOhh Zero Waste wool collection. A unique recycled wool collection where each item is a testament to our commitment to responsible production and eco-friendly living. Let your outdoor spaces be a testament to both your unique taste and your dedication to a healthier planet. All items are weather resistant..
Immerse yourself with this beautiful eco-conscious & weather resistant outdoor collection
With the introduction of the All Nature outdoor collection, OOhh collection invented an innovative and exciting outdoor friendly material.
The pots are made from a mix of 100% natural latex and recycled wood dust from the local carpenters in Sri Lanka. The same recycled wood dust is used in the popular OOhh WOOD’z series. The mix of materials makes it possible to use these beautiful products indoor and outdoor.
A dream came true for Lübech Living when we, together with the Danish company glerups, started our Zero Waste wool project. In this project we reuse excess wool from the glerups production for our lovely Nordic inspired designs.
Susanne Lübech, OOhh / Allan Timm, glerups
In this case we have a fantastic opportunity to use the waste wool from the glerups shoe production. glerups shoes are known for their very high quality of wool which allow us to design the most beautiful wool products. Furthermore a wish of having a local zero waste cooperation came through with this project.
But why is the glerups wool an attratctive sustainable material to us? Because it is a 100% pure natural material, antibacterial, 100% biodegradable and has the fantastic qualities of being stain resistant, itch-free and temperature regulating - so it can keep both your coffee warm and your wine cold.
Decorate your outdoor spaces or conservatory to create your own nature-infused haven.

Due to the very pure paraffin the candles are made of, their burn hours are much longer than you will experience with regular candles.
Lübech Living are incredibly proud to have represented Vance Kitira for 15 years, already. Vance Kitira has been a great inspiration and taught us how it’s possible to combine business with social- and environmental responsibility. Vance’s calm being and deliberate approach is clearly seen in his collection, his staff, and the spirit of the brand.
Looking back at 15 years with Timber Candles in Europe, the customer loyalty to the brand stands out to us. The first customers buying Vance Kitira are still with us, and many have joined us since. The quality of the hand poured Timber Candles are unique and Vance’s caring for the local community and the environment makes Vance Kitira much more than a candle brand.

In addition to his goal of producing clean candles under responsible and environmentally friendly conditions, he cares deeply for his local community, ensuring good working conditions for his employees and doing impressive work with several orphanages in Thailand.
These are very important to Vance, and he places great emphasis on supporting the children’s creative development.

These designs, created by Vance himself, aim to foster the children’s creativity, bring them joy, and provide optimal learning opportunities.
The photos are from Rungsit Orphanage House, one of the many orphanages that receive donations in 2024.
