Created for reality, shaped for life

Founded in 2016 by Stefan Westergård in southern Sweden, Freedesk was the first to create a portable sit-stand desk – and changed how we work from home.

Driven by a belief that good design should be simple, functional and sustainable, we manufacture our desks in Sweden from FSC-certified wood. No complicated mechanisms, no plastic excess, no unnecessary additions. Just well-thought-out materials, quiet function – and movement with meaning.

Since then, our ambition has been clear: we want to lead the way towards a more balanced work life – where home and work can coexist with ease.
Through products that combine stylish Scandinavian design, intuitive function and local manufacturing, we strive to make hybrid work both more beautiful and more sustainable.
For us, it's about more than ergonomics – it's about creating work solutions that fit into life, not interfere with it.
