We are ecstatic - euphoric - and immensely proud to be the winner of Danish Design Awards ‘Visionary Concepts 2022’. This is an acknowledgement of our hard work from the very top of Design Denmark.

We strive to keep a high quality in our design and our products - a long with a joyful working environment for minorities in our society.

A heartfelt thankyou to all friends of Sheworks who has made this journey possible so far.

"A stellar example of how a business creates value beyond measures. This initiative is crucial in so many ways. It is a vital step toward integrating refugees into society by enabling them to work, earn their own money, and learn new skills. A truly dignifying way to bring these women into the Danish workforce. Furthermore, the jury agrees that the solution should also be commended for meeting the circular agenda of the textile and furniture industries and for helping to preserve a traditional craft from extinction."
