Oz design house King Living offers flexible luxury with modular, expandable Aura sofa

King Living Aura sofa in a living room

Hailing from the land down under, furniture brand King Living has made its latest statement piece available in the UK: the Aura is a curvaceous sofa with a stylish, minimalist aesthetic – and one very cool twist.

At first glance, this Australian designer showpiece is all about form, with flowing, rounded lines and a low-slung profile – but behind the smooth silhouette lies a clever modular system designed for real-world adaptability.

The Aura can be reconfigured as needs evolve. Buyers can create corner, L-shaped or U-shaped configurations, or expand the design by adding additional modules as required. Whether you’re entertaining friends or creating a reading nook in a small space, the Aura can evolve to meet changing needs.

The sofa is also available in a wide selection of premium materials, including European leathers and high-end upholstery fabrics. Opt for muted neutrals or more expressive textures, to match your style.

The Aura can be reconfigured as needs evolve, from compact corner setups to sprawling U-shaped arrangements..

David King, founder of King Living, describes the new model as “a purposeful design that proves when intention and fluidity converge, the result can feel both expansive and refined.”

Beneath the upholstery you’ll find a patented King Postureflex steel suspension system paired with extra-high pocket springs. At its core is the King Steel Frame, which comes with a 25-year warranty, while tailored removable covers make professional cleaning, repairs, or future restyling a doddle.

For those with limited space, the Aura’s footprint and curved edges can help maximise usable living area without compromising visual impact. For larger homes, the sofa’s scalability makes it ideal for evolving family needs and more formal entertaining areas.

“Aura is our response to today’s living spaces,” says King. “It’s designed for adaptability, but without ever losing its elegance.”

Each unit is made to order, with prices starting at £1,1890. Founded in Sydney in 1977, King Living has showrooms in the UK, US, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, China, and Canada.
