Kos Living is a design brand that respects nature, craftsmanship, and conscious living, with a simple, timeless, and refined aesthetic. We design long-lasting products through natural materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and a slow production approach. We stand against rapid consumption — with a commitment that benefits both society and nature, we aim to build genuine, long-term connections with our customers.

Find Your Own Kos!

There are moments when you can be yourself, reflect on yourself, feel safe in a natural place — and wish they would never end. In Norway, they call this feeling Kos. These cherished moments can be experienced by a river or during a dinner around a wooden table. Because at the heart of this feeling are things that are natural, unpretentious, and make one feel good. At Kos Living, we draw our strength from the power, balance, and aesthetics of nature. We envision a sustainable world and consider this responsibility our priority.

Our Natural Living Philosophy

Kos Living is a design brand that brings this feeling into the home; shaped by natural materials, careful craftsmanship, and a slow production approach. For us, home is a place where one returns to themselves, slows down, and breathes.

At Kos Living, ‘good design’ is not just about appearance; it also concerns materials, production discipline, and transparency. We adopt the solid wood standard in furniture and prioritize responsible sourcing. We use VOC-free and certified natural oils on wood surfaces; we aim for lower impact by increasing recycled content in packaging. We present products with real photos and natural lighting whenever possible — because trust begins with showing the truth.

We stand against the disposable culture; we believe in producing fewer but better, timeless pieces that become more beautiful with use. Because true comfort is not about trends but a bond that deepens over years.

 

“About 25 years ago, I had a cabinet made by a woodworker who had a small workshop. I described the cabinet I wanted to the craftsman, down to its color, pattern, slats, and handles. The result was a cabinet made from solid wood veneer, what today is called country-vintage but whose trend never fades. I have moved that cabinet through three homes and still use it. It has minor deformations but looks perfectly sturdy. I realized that wood is a living thing through it. This cabinet, which is over twenty years old, has turned into an item that means more every day. For me, timelessness in an object is something like this…”
