Titchkosky, Koskela

Koskela founders Russel and Sasha “believe in more than the

bottom line and want to be remembered for our commitment to

have a positive impact”. As such, their furniture, homewares and

lighting products are designed to last (reducing landfill), and their

ongoing collaborations with Aboriginal and Torres-Strait Islander

artists and weavers help support Indigenous communities.
