Mokko | Contemporary Sculptural Furniture and Interior Design Studio

Mokko is an Amsterdam-based design studio that specializes in the fusion of sculptural art and functional furniture. Founded in 2017 by Aad Bos, a lawyer-turned-designer, the studio has gained international recognition for its unique aesthetic that balances monolithic forms with geometric precision. The collection includes a wide range of interior objects, from dining tables and seating to consoles and acoustic works, all characterized by a rhythm of volumes and voids. Each piece is handcrafted in the Netherlands by skilled carpenters using solid, sustainable hardwoods such as French and German oak or American walnut, ensuring that every item is a future heirloom. Mokko's design philosophy revolves around stripping away excess to reveal the essence of an inspiration, resulting in pieces that are both emotionally resonant and architectural in nature. Their materials include not only high-quality wood but also brass, stone, and Austrian wool, all selected for their durability and natural beauty. The studio emphasizes traditional craftsmanship while maintaining a contemporary minimalist structure, often drawing influence from brutalism and traditional timber construction. Whether working on private commissions or collaborating with international interior professionals, the studio maintains a commitment to quality and responsible sourcing, with all wood being FSC or PEFC certified. Mokko offers a sophisticated range of collections, including the Aperta, Brut, and Taes series, each exploring different aspects of materiality and form.
