We design products that facilitate a sustainable lifestyle change

Keep your plants happy with natural watering system Waterworks; Effortlessly create stylish arrangements with fewer flowers with the Flower Constellations; Use growth disk Helios to grow cuttings and seeds into water rooted plants; And keep your fruits and vegetables fresh for longer with our Poma/Olera series.

We aim to make a difference with affordable, problem solving products everyone can use.

Joining forces for a smaller footprint

Together with Dutch brands like Ay Illuminate and Ahrend we created reparable lamps (Wren & Kiwi) and circular cabinets (ReCabinet) that are locally produced from sustainable materials, helping you create a stylish home with a small ecological foot print.

We contribute to a circular economy through design

Operating as a multi-cultural compact team makes us flexible and versatile. 

Combining Jana's knack for research and concept development with Thomas' technical skills and penchant for hands-on prototyping, we tackle design challenges with curiosity and tenacity.

Designing is always a team-effort, whereas we each have our specific strong suits when it comes to all other actions involved in running a design business.

Having invested in a network of trustworthy suppliers and dependable production partners, gives us flexibility to scale up whenever a design project asks for it. 

With his love for materials, construction and experimentation, Design Academy graduate Thomas Linssen is the one who can help you with technically challenging projects.

Thomas loves building prototypes, creating CAD designs and making models, ever working towards the ultimate design. He is responsible for pretty much anything in the studio that requires a hands-on approach, whether that is installing a shelf or making a Patera Magna bowl.

With her Dutch-Indonesian roots and multicultural curiosity, Jana Flohr initially studied Cultural Anthropology. She switched to conceptual product design at the Utrecht School of the Arts to for less onlooking and more practical impact. Jana is the one to reach out to when it comes to research, concept development and graphic design.

An experienced facilitator in the design world, Jana is the one responsible for management and communications as well as sales, marketing and all House of Thol online activities. If you're sending an e-mail, Jana is probably the one getting back to you.
