KILO

Advanced B2C furniture configurator integrated directly into the manufacturing process

KILO takes a unique approach to furniture configuration, using a CNC (computer numerical control) machine to manufacture pieces to customers’ exact specifications. Want that table a few centimeters longer? The CNC machine will cut the wood planks accordingly.

Stylish minimalist furniture with exceptional customization options
