Xylo Living is a flexible furniture platform. This system relies on easy to assemble and disassemble furniture components.

Imagine having a sofa and coffee table that can be easily transformed into a dining room table when you want to host a dinner party and can easily fit into a Honda Civic when it is time to move.
Xylo Living Furniture is perfect for use in Single Family Homes, Townhomes, Apartments, Yachts/Boats, Schools, Multifunction Spaces, Cafes/Restaurants, Camping/Glamping Tents, RVs/Mobile/Motor Homes, Tiny Homes, Modular/Prefab/Pod Homes, Micro Apartments, Vacation Homes, Patios, Verandas, Porches, Space Ships, etc.
