ūgo is a family-owned Oregon company making sustainably designed furniture at their Willamette Valley facility. The American-made sofas, loveseats, and arm chairs are constructed using an earthquake-resistant pine frame, hemlock and vinyl cushion supports, and high-resiliency polyurethane foam made of recycled drink bottles. The furniture assembles quickly using a special metal latching system and no tools.
All of this adds up to portable, practical, affordable, and green home furnishings, great for college students, offices, and others who want value without sacrificing comfort or style.
