Kos Design - mid century modern

Family manufactory

We are a small, family-run manufactory whose products are made with attention to detail. Carpentry traditions have been passed down in our family from generation to generation. Our furniture, is the result of manual work of artisans from Kalwaria Zebrzydowska. Carpentry traditions in this town date back to the 17th century. We cooperate with local artisans who prepare individual pieces for us.

Classics in a modern edition

We design furniture that refers to the mid-century modern period. In our opinion, the best time for design, because „less is better” and „simplicity is the height of sophistication.” Minimalism, modernist shapes, abandonment of ornamentation, natural materials, is a recipe for a piece of furniture that will fit into any interior. Cult furniture from the communist era, but above all, timeless Scandinavian designs are our inspiration. We love vintage furniture, but we know that it's getting harder and harder to find gems in good condition that will fit in dimensions or color into our interior. Our designs, like those from 50 years ago, are simple, timeless and solidly made. They look good in almost any interior.

The power of things

Solidly made products made of high quality materials, means saving raw materials, less waste, lower environmental costs. We also remember the saying of our grandparents that „a poor person cannot afford cheap things.” Having limited money, it is better to buy higher quality items because they serve a long time and actually reduce expenses. We are confident that our products will last for generations, not only because of the natural materials they are made of, but also because of the timeless design that guides us in designing them.

The furniture is handmade. However, we have added contemporary technology to the classic design and artisanal production method. We use state-of-the-art accessories, such as high-end hinges, drawer rails and closing systems.

Act locally, think globally

Our furniture does not come off the factory conveyor belt, nor does it linger in warehouses. We make each product to order. We tailor the furniture to the individual needs of our clients.We use materials purchased from local manufacturers to minimize our carbon footprint and environmental impact. We manufacture furniture from 100% wood.
