What HKliving is known for
HKLIVING is a home-design brand founded in 2008 by Emiel Hetsen and Sander Klaver. Its collections span furniture and lighting as well as ceramics and textiles. Vintage references inform the range, which is sold through a wider dealer network rather than a single verified Amsterdam shop.
HKliving was created by Emiel Hetsen and Sander Klaver, with the brand name taking both of their initials. Based in Dronten, Netherlands, the company designs contemporary, bohemian, and industrial-style home furnishings and accessories that reference design traditions from around the world and different time periods. The brand's aesthetic combines vintage inspiration—particularly 1970s aesthetics—with modern design sensibilities. HKliving's product range extends across lighting, textiles, tableware, and household items. The most popular collection features bold 1970s-inspired ceramic mugs, plates, and bowls in distinctive color combinations. The brand's design philosophy draws inspiration from multiple sources, creating distinctive home accessories and lifestyle pieces that blend Eastern design references with Western contemporary aesthetics. Products are distributed internationally through specialty retailers and online channels, emphasizing the intersection of vintage charm and modern function.
