Introducing Kayu Home for sustainable interiors from around the world

Oriental furniture specialist Shimu has announced the launch of a new interiors brand with a strong emphasis on furniture and homewares made from sustainable and reclaimed materials and with a global focus.

Kayu Home offers the best of sustainable interiors from around the world, with a wide range of solid wood furniture, rugs and homewares in a natural, stripped back look that blends well into both modern and traditional homes. The company works directly with small furniture workshops in Indonesia, India and China, using reclaimed woods including elm, poplar and teak that are salvaged from disused and dismantled houses and industrial buildings.















































































Along with newly made furniture, Kayu Home also offers a large collection of vintage and antique pieces sourced from China and India, and has plans to extend its vintage range to include items from elsewhere in Asia and Europe.

The new collection is available to order online at www.kayuhome.co.uk and a selection from the range can be viewed at the company's showroom in West Yorkshire.
 















































Says director James Cottrell, "For a long time I have wanted to offer a wider selection of the beautifully made furniture and decorative homewares that I've seen on my travels around Asia that don't fit easily into the distinctively oriental Shimu 'look'.  Kayu Home is the result - a carefully curated selection to bring a pure, natural, highly tactile and individual style to your home while caring for the planet's precious resources."

Along with beautifully crafted furniture and antiques, visitors to the new website or showroom will find a huge array of accessories for the home that the company imports direct or sources from ethical suppliers that share its values, and that perfectly complement the natural, tactile character of the furniture.
