Werkwaardig

Welcome to the world of Werkwaardig, a place where creativity knows no bounds.
We design products that spark feelings and inspire imagination. Our style is different from the usual – we mix fresh ideas with things that feel real and down to earth.

Werkwaardig was founded in 2016 by product designers Timo Keultjes and Diederik Dam. The name ‘Werkwaardig’ is a play on the Dutch word ‘Merkwaardig’, which means ‘remarkable’. By flipping the ‘M’, we created our unique brand name, which stands for ‘design that matters’.

Our studio and warehouse are located in Amsterdam East, next to the former Bijlmer prison. The neighborhood has a blend of industrial and rustic charm and is on its way to become one of Amsterdam’s most distinctive areas. Just as this former industrial and prison site is evolving into a new, vibrant neighborhood with playful architecture, our brand breathes life into everyday objects, giving them a fresh perspective.
