About

Hi there, we’re Higher Ground Furniture. We’re a small-but-mighty team based in Asheville, North Carolina. Our unique approach to design sits well (pun intended) in Asheville’s thriving community of artists, creators, and lovers of the outdoors.

Let’s get to higher ground. Together.

Mission

Our mission is to create products that inspire wellness, creativity, and sustainable thinking.

The Higher Ground Chair incorporates sustainable materials and a minimalist design aesthetic to improve the way the world sits.
