We Are Bitte was founded in 2017 by Katrine Loug Jagd.
In 1979, a family member made an elephant chair in his garage. This chair has given rise to great joy for every single child who has met the elephant. And combined with Katrine’s eye for aesthetics, it led to an update of the chair with clear references to the original design. “Eskild Toddler Chair” was born. And We Are Bitte was born.
“Bitte” is the pet name of a beloved family member – the little girl whom the original elephant chair was designed for more than 40 years ago. “Bitte” also means “tiny” in Danish, thus linking our name to the small children around us.
We Are Bitte’s products are designed in Denmark and based on a design tradition that builds on function and craftsmanship, and they create products meant to be passed on for generations.
We Are Bitte salutes slow living, playful moments of life, and close family ties.
Love it!
