NEW FURNITURE WORTH TRUSTING
Built to age like vintage, engineered to be repaired and designed to come back
You buy it. You use it. You throw it out — because nothing about it was designed to go anywhere else. The foam is glued to the frame. The fabric is stapled over the foam. We have a term for that: a monstrous hybrid.
OBAN is the opposite. We design objects to come apart, wear in, get repaired, and come back to us when you're finished with them. Designed in Atlanta. Made in the USA. Built for people who would've bought vintage if they could find anything new worth trusting.
FOUNDING PRINCIPLES
[1] The Hierarchy
Repair first. Reuse second. Recycle last. That order shapes every material we touch.
[2] THE TAKE BACK
Every OBAN piece is designed to come back. 20% credit anytime. Refurbished and resold as archived pieces or recycled by us.
[3] SERIES, NOT COLLECTIONS
We don't drop collections. We release Series — time-boxed experiments in how a piece of furniture should behave.
