AL2 has created distinctive, timeless design pieces since 2013, drawing on a woodworking heritage that dates back to 1970. Founded by Manos Alexopoulos, the brand has evolved into a Greek lifestyle label with a strong presence on the international design scene. Through collaborations with award–winning designers, AL2 produces furniture defined by elegance, flexibility and contemporary refinement. Its designs shape personalised spaces—from homes and offices to public environments—tailored to individual needs. AL2 is distributed in more than 30 countries and is ISO–certified for quality management and industrial design.

al2 is proud to present its first collaboration with the well–known architectural office, Kengo Kuma and Associates. The result of this creative endeavour is the unique "meguru" low table, which is inspired by the greek meander motif. A continuous plywood sheet loops back to itself, creating an uninterrupted movement that defines both the form and the function of the table. A flowing object linking tradition, contemporary craft and precision engineering.

The story of sog begins in the world of bespoke furniture in Japan, where its creators listened to countless stories—the single line drawn by an architect, the quiet wish of a user. To answer each one, the brand's artisans sculpted wood, tailored fabrics, and bent metal. The myriad forms born and then vanished in this process became what they call the “memories of design.” From this vast accumulation of memories and experience, “sog” was born: a brand that carves out the "So” (素)—the elemental form destined to become the standard of the future.
