A shared design ethos
The belief that beauty and practicality can coexist is central to COS. We see elegance in simplicity, in designs stripped of unnecessary detail. The idea that ease of function adds to the aesthetic value of an object or garment was pioneering. This modern approach has proved timeless decade after decade, ever since the first days of the Bauhaus school.
