CEO and founder, Olivier Ratinckx, took his first steps in the furniture business in 2001.
During his visit at the IMM Cologne Fair in January 2001, he got in touch with his future Chinese partner. This led to his first business trip to Beijing, where a new company - TW-Home - was born.

Originally, the name ‘’TW” was created as a reference to the initials of Oliver’s first Chinese partner, Mr. Tian Yu. As you can imagine, this became a running joke, as Olivier understood Mr. Wu.

In 2013, Olivier founded a new concept together with his wife Eva:
“Anno 13 by TW-Home”.
This division and “trend” is specialized in the prospect of vintage models, which after adjustment - by using the outmost modern upholster technics - result into new, modern, fancy and trendy chairs fitting the current markets.
