Is a furniture subscription right for you?
Our subscription model is for you if:
- You want to create appealing workspaces for a hybrid and ever-changing world, and want to be able to evolve your fit-out based on how your needs evolve, or even how your space and team scale up and down?
- You want well-designed and durable furniture that last, but cannot dedicate teams to deal with furniture asset management and ongoing maintenance?
- You want to dedicate your Capex to invest into your business capability, not furniture?
- You are looking for a cost-effective, hassle-free way to keep your furniture looking as good as new, year after year.
- You have ESG Targets and are looking for ways to reduce the embodied carbon footprint of your space?
- You are leasing your space and do not want to have to deal with your office fit out at the end of its life?
The multiple benefits of Koskela + subscription
Koskela+ furniture subscription provides a great opportunity to adapt furniture to suit evolving work and learn environments, giving the user choice in their ways of working. To put it simply: It guarantees access to quality furniture and adaptable fit out, at a lower price. And without the hassle of maintenance. But there are also many other side benefits.
Adaptive solution
Upgrade, scale up or down. Your office fitout is adaptive. Because in a fast-evolving world, who is sure that the furniture they have today will still reflect their needs in 5 or 10 years from now?
Financial Flexibility
In a subscription model, you only pay for the period you use the product and your furniture fit out becomes part of your operational cost (OPEX). So you keep your working capital (CAPEX) available for your core activity, and never pay too much because you only pay for what you are using.
No more massive investments upfront, with related interest fees, instead an all inclusive solution that ends up being more cost-effective, based on the typical lifecycle of workplace fit-outs.
Desirable Space
In the modern hybrid world, workplaces and campuses need to be desirable to attract and nurture on site loyalty ; a space that inspires and makes everyone feel welcome. Koskela’s beautifully crafted design does just that, with its unique 'resimercial' style that blends residential design into the collaborative workplace.
Off balance sheet carbon footprint
With a subscription model, you no longer own the furniture. Therefore, its embodied carbon footprint does not feature on your carbon report, helping you reach your ESG targets. It is also a circular business model, offering 'furniture as a service', known to be virtuous for the planet, as Koskela will deal with the end of life of your fit out, keeping it away from landfill.
Always looking good as new
Koskela + plans include annual on-site maintenance, to proactively check your furniture functionality and aesthetics, and repair, refurbish or replace any items when needed. This way, your furniture always looks as good as new, without the normal wear and tear of time.
What if something breaks in the meantime? You can request an onsite repair service at any time via the App, by simply scanning the QR code on the product. Our maintenance team will come and repair this free of charge, because the warranty applies to the full term of your contract. Asset management is a standard part of our Subscription plans. With this tool you can easily get an overview and quickly pass on any changes required to the customer portal.
By definition, the design of long lasting furniture delivered via a circular business model will create advantages and benefits to business, customers, and society more broadly.
