Mikkel Kids furniture
Based in Riga, Latvia, we are a family-owned company of
parents who design and create furniture for children. We
share a passion for design and carpentry, focusing on creating
aesthetic and simple items that are loved by both children and
adults. Our pieces are crafted to fit seamlessly into the overall
interior of the home, adding both charm and functionality.
What’s important to us?
As designers and manufacturers at Mikkel Kids, our top priority
is safety. We never compromise on the quality of our materials
or the stability of our furniture. Every piece is designed to endure
the energy and playfulness of kids, ensuring it remains safe and
reliable.
We are inspired by the elegance of Nordic design, which beautifully combines simplicity, aesthetics, functionality, and meticulous craftsmanship. This approach drives us to create furniture
that is not only visually appealing but also practical and durable,
meeting the needs of modern families.
Our values
We prioritize simplicity, functionality, and safety and ensure each piece is
made with care and consideration for a child’s scale and ergonomic needs.
- Sustainability with FSC-certified materials
- Nordic-inspired design simplicity
- Safety-first approach in every detail
- Montessori-inspired children's furniture
Focused on safety: Our guiding principles
Optimal angles
We avoid top-heavy furniture that
could pose tipping risks. Our focus is
on creating stable pieces with optimal angles, ensuring that the weight
is distributed evenly, particularly
towards the bottom.
Monolithic forms
As much monolithic forms as possible,
minimizing the risk of disassembly and
ensuring sturdiness for long-lasting use.
We also avoid attachments and small
details, ensuring durability and safety for
little ones.
Extra extended support
We incorporate extra extended support
where needed, always prioritizing
safety. This precautionary measure is
crucial, especially considering the
potential tipping hazards.
Material thickness
We use 18 mm (3/4 in) thick material to enhance
structural integrity, sturdiness and provide safer
joint pockets. This ensures our products endure
daily use with confidence, providing reliable
safety for your children.
