Zanat is a design-oriented manufacturing company built on the foundations of a UNESCO world heritage woodcarving tradition and a century old family business renown for making heirloom-quality, hand-carved furniture and decorative objects. The fourth-generation heirs to the family business, brothers Orhan and Adem Niksic, initiated collaborations with globally renowned designers to develop an impressive collection of award-winning contemporary furniture and accessories. They envisaged Zanat as a vehicle to promote a new approach in design and production: one that emphasizes craftsmanship and shows how traditional techniques can enrich and open new possibilities for design while contributing to the preservation of cultural heritage.

At 3daysofdesign, Zanat will showcase its 2024 collection and other recent products. In the world where mere touch is becoming a distant luxury, Zanat creates heirloom products of beauty, warmth and tactility. Zanat aims to define a sense of shelter and comfort in interiors, to give a pause, a moment to reflect and feel. Zanat’s aim is to contribute to this kind of atmosphere at the joint Framing exhibition during 3daysofdesign. The exhibition will be an opportunity to discover exceptional new products, but also to learn about Zanat’s four-generation old family woodcarving tradition inscribed on the UNESCO list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity and its trailblazing approach to sustainability.
