Why this house holds attention.
HKliving has become an internationally distributed Dutch interiors brand by combining modern, retro and eclectic references across a broad home collection. Its scale and twice-yearly rhythm place it closer to a complete interiors house than a single-category furniture maker.
Selected by Objena
Why this house, here.
Our editorial position, separated clearly from the house’s official record.
Objena follows HKliving for clients who want colour, texture and casual domestic character without losing the discipline of a curated selection. The opportunity is to edit the broad catalogue tightly rather than reproduce it wholesale.
Focus on the pieces with material conviction and long room life. Within a fast-moving collection, Objena should privilege ceramics, furniture and textiles whose colour or surface can anchor a room beyond one season.

HKliving says its collection is distributed in more than seventy countries. Objena's editorial profile does not by itself claim Australian stock or appointment; those require separate supply confirmation.
