Michael Bihain

Michael Bihain is one of Europe’s most creative designers, blending contemporary lifestyle with collective memory. His work reflects a balance of precise research and innovative lines. Bihain’s designs, such as the iconic Swedese Libri Shelf, allow the user to become part of the creative process. With roots in both carpentry and interior design, he studied at the St Luc Institute in Liège and Hull University, later opening his first studio in London. Today, his Brussels-based studio continues to produce cutting-edge furniture and interior designs.

Bihain’s designs are renowned for their versatility. The Libri bookshelf, for example, can stand alone as a statement piece or be combined to form an entire wall or room divider. Crafted from oak or ash, this piece is both functional and sculptural, making it a standout in modern shelving. The collection also includes a desk and standing table, offering further flexibility to suit your space.
