Origin


Origin is a family run British company who design and manufacture contemporary furniture products for use within education, workplace, healthcare and hospitality environments.
We strive to make good design available to everyone, that’s why we design quality products that both meet the demands of some of the biggest brands in the world, yet are accessible to someone starting their first cafe.
Our products are manufactured, stocked and assembled in Great Britain providing our customers with high quality products that can be easily customised and delivered within short time frames.
The Vine collection consists of a broad range of steel tables designed specifically to compliment Contour, Origin’s outdoor seating range. The construction marries a thin steel top with a bold tubular leg design inspired by organic forms. The range is well suited to outdoor environments using the latest protective primer and powder coating technology. The collection is available in 5 different colours and is ideally suited for gardens, terraces, cafés, and outdoor office areas.
The Vine collection was in fact developed for a specific project, after The RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) ordered 300 of Origin’s Contour chairs but couldn’t find a suitable table to pair with. When going through concepts I liked a drawing in which the table
legs looked like garden vines, growing and intertwining. This very quickly became the preferred route by all and then developed into a broad range of tables, providing suitability for the 4 heights of Origin’s Contour chairs and stools.

The aim was to maintain the sole use of steel throughout the products. Providing material continuity between tables and chairs ensuring a consistent aesthetic, durability and colour options. Mono-materiality also makes recycling products at the end of life more simple, with steel being the most recycled material in the world it can easily be melted down and formed into new steel products in a more circular approach.
Our products are designed and manufactured in the UK, something that has been instrumental to the development of Vine. With product development being such an iterative and rigorous process, building close manufacturing relationships and working in a collaborative way is the key to our products and commitment to quality.

RHS Bridgewater is the fifth RHS garden and one of the largest gardening projects undertaken in Europe in recent years. The transformation of this 154-acre green space was designed to enrich the lives of local communities and their environment for the future.
Origin’s Contour Chairs and Vine Tables were specified for the exterior cafe and restaurant areas. The chairs compliment the buildings striped facade and have a unique transparent quality which allows them to blend into the beautiful surroundings.

In fact it is the most recycled material in the world, and whilst it may not be a new material it can be re-imagined into new forms, suitable for modern life. This is why we are building a diverse portfolio of steel based products, which are made from recycled material and are designed to be easily recycled.
Origin’s steel products are made from a combination 56% recycled and 44% virgin material. This is thought to be the most sustainable ratio, as demand for steel outstrips the amount that is recycled.
Buying steel on the basis of high recycled content does not stimulate further recycling but instead increases the cost.
Steel is a great material, it is strong, inexpensive and endlessly recyclable.
Giles Pearson - Designer
Steel has many great characteristics, although it’s best I feel is that it can be repeatedly recycled without any impact on the quality of the material. I like the idea that the steel in our chairs has metamorphosised over the years serving a variety of different functions. A chair now but may have been a car panel, structural beam or hand rail, this to me is circular design.
Product longevity is also extremely important to sustainability, designing products to last not only physically but from an aesthetical stand point, rather than following any fashion trends. I believe it’s important to focus on material, structural and functional qualities when designing a product and to allow a pure aesthetic to emerge organically.
