"LIFE IS STYLE!"
KARE, which operates over 200 stores in 40 countries worldwide, has joined the Living Edition, a curated selection of sophisticated and unique interior specialty stores featuring modern furniture and accessories, as well as interiors that emphasize materials and design.
Founded in 1981 as a small shop on the outskirts of Munich, Germany, KARE is an interior brand known for its designs that offer a unique interpretation of trend styles and classic frameworks, guided by the concepts "LIFE IS STYLE!" and "LIFE AGAINST THE STREAM!"
We Don't Make Boring Furniture.
KARE develops a unique design style that expresses "Out of Ordinary. More taste than money!" by reinterpreting various trend keywords with a playful spirit, while also considering the environment of production sites and sourcing routes, and regenerating old furniture using reclaimed wood.
From large furniture pieces like sofas, dining tables, chairs, side tables, and chests, to interior accessories such as vases, mirrors, tableware, candle holders, art, and objets d'art, the collection is a wide-ranging lineup born from a spirit of originality and surprise.
