A la vida

  • Wood

This calligraphic creation in wood encourages you to enjoy life, to live life to the full. Here’s to life! That is the English translation of this Spanish toast or wish. The playful letters were hand-designed by Maud Bekaert and then laser-cut into wood. Congratulate someone with this wooden inscription or display this little gem in your home to remind you of how important it is to enjoy life.

Wooden inscriptions on a pedestal

For all the wooden signs she creates, Maud uses an eco-friendly and sustainable type of wood-based panel. This material is completely formaldehyde-free and is made from softwood fibres sourced from waste streams in the timber industry. It combines a minimal environmental impact with high quality, perfectly in line with Maud’s vision and craftsmanship.
Each sign is designed and cut out by Maud herself. It is a traditional craft process that is slow and precise, with attention to form, line and meaning.


The wooden text is fragile but is carefully packed between two wooden panels. The bottom wooden panel also serves as a stand to prop the text upright. Would you prefer to hang the text? That’s possible. Brass nails look best for this and provide a refined finish (not included).
