In the Australian home, the transition between indoors and out has always been more invitation than divide. Long afternoons stretch across thresholds, meals drift from kitchens to courtyards, and spaces are designed not to separate, but to connect. At Cosh Living, we believe great design nurtures this continuity, shaping interiors and exteriors that speak the same language.

Architecture That Opens Up
Seamless living begins with architecture. Open glazing, sliding doors and continuous floor planes dissolve boundaries and draw the eye outward. But the real sense of flow happens in the finer details. It is in how one space speaks to the next, how materials echo across zones, and how natural light interacts with form and finish.
Furniture plays a pivotal role in this connection. When thoughtfully scaled and elegantly restrained, it becomes an extension of the architecture. It guides movement, frames views and softens transitions. Timber dining tables that reflect joinery finishes, outdoor lounge pieces that mirror interior tones, and textured fabrics that respond to the surrounding landscape all contribute to a sense of cohesion that feels deliberate and calm.

Furniture that Lives in Both Worlds
We curate collections that are designed to move effortlessly between inside and out—visually, materially, and experientially.
Outdoor pieces by Tribu offer the tactile refinement of indoor furniture, while embracing the durability of high-performance materials. Clean lines, natural tones and thoughtful detailing allow them to sit comfortably in an interior setting, or frame a landscape without distraction.

Kett, designed and made in Australia, draws inspiration from the local environment, its palette, textures, and sense of restraint. Timber pieces from the Otway or Erskine collections bring warmth and craftsmanship to both dining rooms and outdoor terraces, blurring the edges between built and natural. Potocco, our Italian brand, brings sculptural form and fine detailing to both indoor and outdoor spaces. Each piece is crafted with care, offering warmth, balance and a refined sense of ease.

Creating Harmony Through Design
When designing across zones, look for ways to echo rather than match.
-
Repeat a timber type, like the Oak seen above or metal finish
-
Choose complementary upholstery across sofas and lounge chairs
-
Allow landscape elements such as stone, greenery & water to become part of the design language
Soft furnishings also play a role. A neutral-toned outdoor rug or a linen-covered cushion can bridge the aesthetic of adjacent zones, offering comfort and cohesion.
Above: Indoor furniture by Kett and outdoor furniture from Tribù are tied together through soft linen fabrics and a restrained palette and the backdrop of greenery enhances the calm, monochromatic outdoor setting.
