The design company was established by Karl Rossell and Tonny Glismand in 2010, and has since designed a multitude of different pieces of furniture for modern homes. The duo’s philosophy is to bridge the gap between commercial and industrial design and good craftsmanship by using honest and authentic materials, as well as focusing on even the smallest details.

byKATO states: "What we look for is originality and authenticity – design with character and history, and we believe that this is the kind of craftsmanship that requires heart and soul and a true passion for design."

byKATO are the designers behind a large number of popular designs for Andersen Furniture, including the iconic T1 dining table, S1 sideboard and AC2 chair.
