Consisting of modular sofas of different sizes, “L” size combinations, ottomans, as well as armchairs, the collection offers a vast number of arrangements of the sofa to choose from. The actual ‘kayu’ part of the Kayu Collection is made with local Semangkok timber, ethically sourced from a sustainably managed forest in Malaysia.
