Our mission
To create exceptional sustainable furniture that transforms spaces and enriches lives, while respecting our planet and supporting local communities.
With timeless silhouettes, considered materials, and a lasting commitment to craftsmanship and sustainability, Loop & Twist is the embodiment of our deep-rooted connection to Manchester. We create refined, made-to-order furniture that balances heritage and function, offering a quieter kind of luxury designed to live well and last long. Our philosophy values restraint, longevity, and intention, while honouring the people, processes, and craft traditions behind every piece.
An ode to Manchester's industrial legacy and textile heritage, Loop & Twist was founded in 2021 by a designer whose family worked in the city’s textile trade for over two decades. With a background in interior and product design, the brand was born from a single reimagined bistro-style chair and has since evolved into a thoughtful collection of timeless pieces for modern living. Developed with purpose and crafted in partnership with small-scale makers, each piece is produced using FSC-certified wood and high-performance fabrics selected for their longevity and tactile quality.
We follow a made-to-order model that places longevity, personalisation, and intention at the heart of everything we do. Each piece is made specifically for the person who will live with it, tailored to reflect their space and story. This slower, more deliberate approach eliminates unnecessary waste, avoids surplus inventory, and gives customers the opportunity to create something uniquely their own.
By working with specialist manufacturers who prioritise quality over scale, we ensure that every detail—from material to finish—is carefully resolved. The result is furniture that is not only built to last but designed to be loved, reupholstered, and passed on. A modern heirloom, shaped by use and memory.
From trade to home
Originally created to serve the commercial sector, Loop & Twist began by designing furniture for hospitality spaces where durability, comfort, and style were paramount. As we refined our materials and processes, we saw the potential for our designs to live just as beautifully in domestic spaces. This shift from trade-first to home-first was instinctive, allowing us to focus on the details that make a piece feel deeply personal and enduring.Today, our pieces are designed to sit softly in residential spaces while maintaining their presence.
Whether placed in a dining room, studio apartment, or sunlit corner, a Loop & Twist chair or table is made to feel at home. The name itself reflects this vision. It was inspired by a simple moment during a first home renovation, taken from two carpet samples pinned to a wall—one looped, the other twisted. A quiet nod to structure, materiality, and the spaces where life unfolds.
Loop & Twist exists in quiet resistance to fast furniture and fleeting trends. We are not driven by urgency or volume, but by care—for design, for materials, and for the people who choose to live with our pieces. We create affordable luxury that doesn’t compromise on quality. Furniture that feels personal, considered, and built to last.
We do not believe in disposable design. A chair should not be replaced after a few years, but reupholstered and kept. A table should carry the marks of time and the stories of the people who gathered around it. We build for the long haul, designing pieces that live with you, move with you, and grow more meaningful with age.
For us, success isn’t measured by seasonal sales or mass production. It is about one day finding a Loop & Twist chair at a vintage fair, worn in and still loved—a piece that has truly lived.
