Wood surface specialist Havwoods returns to Clerkenwell Design Week, showcasing its latest collections with a focus on innovation, collaboration and design excellence.
A Collaborative Showroom Takeover
For the festival, Italian furniture brand True will take over the Havwoods showroom basement for a three-day collaboration. The installation will feature a curated selection of True’s furniture alongside pieces from the Havwoods x True Lateral collection, highlighting the synergy between contemporary furniture and premium wood surfaces.
A standout feature is the bespoke Apex kitchen, finished in dark navy with soft-touch FENIX laminate. This freestanding, one-piece solution is designed for offices, flexible workspaces and social areas. Compact yet fully equipped, it offers customisable finishes, colours and shelving options. Handcrafted in Italy, Apex blends style and practicality, creating a natural hub for meetings, coffee breaks and informal gatherings.

New Product Launches
Havwoods will also introduce new designs across its TreeAzzo, Elegante, Flameless and Handgrade collections. Among these is a preview of Handgrade Premier Patterna, a new collection that reinterprets traditional end-grain timber in a contemporary context. Visitors will be invited to explore fresh approaches to timber through interactive displays and digital tools.
