At Astigarraga Kit Line, we understand that spaces designed for children must be much more than functional; they must be made into safe, welcoming and stimulating environments. This is why, in recent months, we have been working to expand our range of children’s furniture, adding new products that reflect our commitment to quality, safety and sustainable design.

This launch not only marks a milestone in our growth as a company, it also responds to the needs of today’s educational and family environments, where the well-being of children is a priority.

Children’s wooden furniture to enrich spaces for children

Our new collection is specially designed to suit the dynamics of today’s classrooms and homes. In addition to our children’s shelving, such as the modular DINAMIC and GALA bookcases, we have incorporated ergonomic tables and chairs, coat racks, shoe benches, hangers for photos, drawings or canvases and Montessori boxes and trays with compartments. This furniture is designed to encourage organisation, order, creativity and autonomy, accompanying children in their daily activities.

CURIE children’s tables and chairs comply with UNE-EN 1729-1 and EN 1729-2. They meet rigorous standards of ergonomics, safety and durability. This ensures that children maintain correct posture while painting or playing.

Children’s furniture made of natural wood: calmness and well-being

The choice of certified solid wood is no accident. It is our hallmark. It’s what gives meaning to Astigarraga Kit Line. Certified with the PEFC seal, its sustainability is guaranteed, bringing a unique warmth to children’s spaces/play areas, and creates an environment that favours tranquillity and the emotional well-being of children.

In educational environments, where concentration and comfort are essential, wooden furniture makes all the difference. Studies have shown that natural materials have a relaxing effect, helping to reduce stress and improve concentration. Therefore, opting for wooden furniture is not only an aesthetic decision, it’s also a conscious choice that prioritises the comprehensive development of children.

The new ADA boot bench by Astigarraga Kit Line complies with the European standard for Children’s Furniture UNE-EN 17191, which guarantees that it is safe and resilient for children, both in daily use in a child’s bedroom and in nurseries and schools.

In a classroom surrounded by wood, children will find themselves in a refuge that connects them with nature. Such spaces foster a sense of safety and calmness, allowing them to learn and grow in a cosy environment.

The evolution of classrooms and the importance of adaptability

The education system is constantly evolving, and today’s classrooms are no longer limited to being traditional places of learning. The aim nowadays is now to create multifunctional spaces that adapt to a variety of teaching methodologies, while promoting both learning and student well-being.

Our new children’s furniture is designed to respond to this reality. With versatile, practical furniture and other items, schools can transform their classrooms according to the day’s activities.

Montessori philosophy boxes and trays facilitate organisation and autonomy in children.
VERA photo and picture hangers add a personal and creative touch to any space for children.

This ability to adapt to changing classroom needs makes our collection the ideal solution for schools looking to innovate and offer their students comfortable and stimulating environments.

A collaborative work with the Karmelo Etxegarai School

Behind a new collection there is always a team committed to every stage of the process. Ainhoa Irigoien, product manager of Astigarraga Kit Line, has led the development of this line, ensuring that each item meets the highest standards of quality and functionality. From initial concept to final manufacture, his approach has been key to ensuring a furniture collection that is durable, resistant, adapted to needs and able to meet the expectations of teachers and parents.

But this project has not been developed single-handedly. We have had the collaboration of the Karmelo Etxegarai public school in Azpeitia (Gipuzkoa), where the furniture has been tested in an actual educational environment. This process has allowed us to fine-tune the designs to ensure that they meet both the pedagogical requirements and the comfort needs of the children.

The shoe bench, seating and storage recommended for children between 3 and 7 years old,  and the VERA coat racks are other new products.

Furniture that makes a difference

Our new collection of children’s wooden furniture is not just a set of furnishings; it is a proposal to transform the spaces where children learn and grow. With pieces that combine design, safety and sustainability, we want to help create environments that promote children’s well-being and development. All products are approved for use in school environments, thus ensuring that they meet the highest standards in terms of safety and durability.

We invite schools and families to come and take a look at this collection, and to join us in our vision of a future where every detail, from the material to the design, is thought out with children and their well-being in mind. Because we are convinced that, by designing quality children’s spaces, families will have the peace of mind to enjoy safe and welcoming spaces where children can grow and learn in harmony.
