Atelier Kō — hand-carved furniture from the northern woods
Småland, Sweden · Est. 2018
Hand-carved pieces
from the northern woods.
A small, slow catalogue of seating, tables and storage — solid oak, ash and walnut, shaped by hand and built to outlast the room they were made for.
Currently in the workshop
A few pieces, close to ready.
The Monolith
One plank. No hardware.
A single quarter-sawn oak plank, tapered legs, no hardware. The Monolith Bench is an exercise in restraint — every line earned, every joint hand-cut.

Three woods, no more
We've spent years learning three timbers.
Quiet · structural
European Oak
A single grade of slow-grown oak from managed forests in southern Sweden. Quarter-sawn for stability.
Resilient · sprung
Curved Ash
A small reserve from the south coast, steam-bent over custom forms. Used only where the curve earns it.
Warm · figured
American Walnut
Bought in single planks from a family mill in Pennsylvania. The grain decides the piece, not the other way around.

New pieces, one email at a time.
We make slowly. When something is ready — or when we open the books for new commissions — we send a short note.
