The word Oku relates to the concept of space within and often hidden.

Oku Space is a Melbourne-based furniture brand established by Nick Rennie and Dustin Fritsche both with an ethos to produce high-end sustainable furniture for the residential and commercial market. Already sharing a workshop, Oku Space founders decided to combine their expertise to develop a range of furniture with a strong emphasis on design and quality.
