Thanks to our long-lasting experience we stand for quality and noble craftsmanship. Every day, Obumex puts the motto "Craftsmanship is Mastership" in practice by creating the finest designs in our workshops. A know-how that we pass on for generation to generation.
In 1960, Eli Ostyn planted the seed of what would become Obumex. Orginally, when the family company was founded, we manufactured school furniture.
Obumex quickly transitioned to creating modern, minimalist kitchens. At the national kitchen show, the Obumex kitchen took a first-ranking place. Already at that time, all kitchens were drawn and executed to meet personal requirements. Fully customised. After some decades, the select Furniture collections appeared and the company focused more on interior design as Obumex still does today.
From 1984 Eli’s son, Geert Ostyn, became the manager and Obumex grew into a dynamic organization employing over 100 passionate staff members.
Obumex distinguished itself by collaborating with various designers and remaining untied to specific brands, allowing for constant exploration of new materials and aesthetics.
In 1996, the first signature kitchen designed by John Pawson was launched, which gained international recognition.
Obumex expanded its services to encompass complete interior design, incorporating both high-end brands and custom-made furniture. Thomas Ostyn, the third generation entered the company, and the know-how is again passed on from father to son.
Everything we do nowadays, relies on the skills and creativity of our people. As real artisans, we challenge ourselves continuoiusly while relying on our existing savoir-faire.
