Castle Line

From Vandecasteele to Castle Line

How a basket conquered the world

The story of Castle Line begins with Marc and Claire Vandecasteele who, in 1976, founded a business dealing in woven baskets. Their speciality: import of materials, smart assemblies and export of a finished, refined basket. Marc and Claire very quickly built up a successful international network that extended all the way to the Far East.    

The Vandecasteeles knew the market and, with their nose for trends and design, they rapidly expanded the offer and customer base. What began with baskets, and later rattan, is today a comprehensive offer of indoor and outdoor furniture. Vandecasteele was officially renamed Castle Line several years ago, but the philosophy has remained the same. Just as in its early days, the Vandecasteele family wants to create added value. Thus, furniture and interiors with an extra touch, for customers who are looking for stylish quality.

Cas Moor

BIO

Cas Moor is a Belgian designer who has developed a passion for design from a young age. He pursued his studies in the field of design, earning a bachelor's degree in Interior Architecture and a master's degree in Autonomous Design, which laid the foundation for his professional career. With a strong education and unique perspective, Cas established himself as an independent designer and began collaborating with companies globally, bringing his personal touch to each project.

VISIE

Cas has a distinctive design philosophy, his approach is focused on the design process. He believes that a good design is one that is stripped down to its bare bones, with the essence still intact. Rather than designing a product for specific functions or requirements, he strives to create products that arise from the material, technique, or experimentation. This approach results in 'honest' products where material and craftsmanship not only serve the form but also tell a story. His portfolio of work spans across various design projects, ranging from lighting, furniture, and accessories to exhibition and electronics. His designs include high-volume industrial consumer products, limited-edition pieces, and open-source creations.
