Celebrating the enduring beauty of wood through contemporary artisanship.
Founded in 2015 by designer Laure Amoros, OROS is a French design studio devoted to exploring the many lives of wood. Rooted in a deep respect for material and place, the label brings together artisans, designers, and makers who share a commitment to conscious creation.
Influenced by her family’s tradition of woodworking and ceramics, Amoros was drawn to the craft behind handmade objects. This early appreciation for craft and resourcefulness continues to shape the OROS philosophy: design that honours both material integrity and local making.
Working with diverse wood species and time-honoured techniques such as turning, bending, and carving, OROS creates objects that balance function and form. Each piece reflects the studio’s attention to sustainability, tactility, and the natural character of wood.

The ebonisation process of the Ebo Trivet where chestnut wood is transformed using iron acetate to reveal its deep black tone. This traditional technique highlights the natural grain and character of the wood.
Laure Amoros collaborates with a network of artisans, designers, and makers across France and Europe. Together they explore wood’s possibilities through turning, bending, carving, and assembly, ensuring that each object reflects both the integrity of the material and the expertise of those who shape it.
The Zarucolander, designed by Rio Kobayashi, holds its form through steam-bending walnut slats. OROS designs invite experimentation and open interpretation, while every object is shaped by the precision and care of skilled hands
