XLBoom is a Belgian design brand for residential and living accessories, founded in 1997 by Ann De Cock and Geert-Jan Van Cauwelaert in Antwerp. The company stands for handcrafted, high-quality objects for contemporary daily life — for both indoor and outdoor use. All products are exclusively designed, manufactured and distributed by XLBoom. The design process takes place at the Antwerp headquarters; handcraft production is carried out in ateliers outside Europe. The brand's defining self-description: "Smart living objects" — emotionally intelligent, formally clear design objects that enrich an interior without overwhelming it.
The range covers picture frames, vases, ice buckets, wine holders, plant stands, candle holders, decorative objects and both tables and seating for indoor and outdoor use. Documented designer partnerships include: Finn Stone (Ball Chair — iconic seating object in recycled ABS, suitable for indoor and outdoor use), Sascha Sartory, Alain Gilles (Emoji bookends, Carry Away objects; Designer of the Year 2012, Intérieur Kortrijk), Alain Berteau (Designer of the Year 2006, Intérieur Kortrijk Biennale). Sustainability principle: longevity and recyclable materials as a deliberate design choice.
For interior designers and project specifiers seeking a Belgian accessory concept brand with a consistent formal identity, an international designer network, high craft production quality and a broad product spectrum from table objects to seating pieces, XLBoom is one of the most distinctly independent Belgian design addresses in the European market.
