A prestigious large sofa for the living room or garden from the Kenneth Cobonpue manufacture

Kenneth Cobonpue is a regularly awarded designer and manufacturer of designer furniture from Cebu, Philippines. His journey into design began in 1987, studying industrial design at Pratt Institute in New York. 

During his studies, he completed a leather and wood workshop near Florence, Italy. He then studied furniture marketing and production at Export-Akademie Baden-Württemberg in Reutlingen, Germany. All of this was part of a private and state scholarship program.

Kenneth returned home to Cebu in 1996 to manage Interior Crafts of the Islands, Inc., a furniture design and manufacturing company founded by his mother Betty Cobonpue in 1972. 

Discovering that avant-garde design could have a new face using natural fibers and materials, Kenneth created functional art pieces as an alternative to the Western definition of modern design. 

Today, the KENNETH COBONPUE brand has become globally renowned for its groundbreaking designs and a rich clientele, including Hollywood stars and royalty. 

Garden furniture or indoor furniture?

Many available products are furniture suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. They differ in this regard by finishing with special materials appropriate for the conditions.

Therefore, we can enjoy using the same pieces of furniture both at home and in the garden.
