Tylko Alternative: KUUDU Compared
- 150 × 141 × 35 cm
- FSC oak
- Made in Germany
- Configurable in 3D
Tylko has brought furniture configuration to a wide audience: shelving designed in an app, sized to the centimetre, delivered to order. Anyone considering Tylko wants a shelf that fits their wall and their life. KUUDU starts from the same wish with a different construction: oak veneer (FSC European) on powder-coated aluminium, arranged on a 75 cm section grid, made in Germany.
The configuration shown here is two sections (150 cm) at about 150 cm height in 35 cm full depth. Instead of a millimetre slider, KUUDU works in fixed sections; within each section you choose levels and gap heights freely, so the shelf still follows what actually stands on it. The bottom row can be built as closed boxes while the levels above stay open.
If your wall calls for one exact width down to the centimetre, Tylko answers that brief well. If you want a shelf on a calm, repeating grid that can be taken apart and rebuilt in the next flat with identical parts, KUUDU is built for that. The 3D configurator shows price and dimensions live; expansion modules ship within standard lead time.

FAQ
How does KUUDU differ from Tylko's centimetre sizing?
Tylko sizes each piece to measure in an app. KUUDU uses a fixed 75 cm section grid: widths from 75 to 450 cm in section steps, while levels and gap heights are chosen freely per section. The grid is what keeps every part reusable; a section you buy today fits a shelf you rebuild in five years.
What is KUUDU made of?
Oak veneer (FSC European) over a powder-coated aluminium core. The visible surface is real oak, oiled and open-grain, while the construction stays light and dimensionally stable. Each board is rated for 20 kg.
Can a KUUDU shelf be extended years later?
Yes. Sections, levels and gap heights reorganise with the same parts, and additional sections attach to the existing grid. Expansion and replacement modules are available within standard lead time.
What should I compare before choosing between a Tylko shelf and KUUDU?
Three things decide it: material (coated wood-based boards versus oak veneer on aluminium), sizing (centimetre-exact versus a 75 cm section grid with free levels), and what happens at the next move (KUUDU rebuilds into a new shape with identical parts). Both configure in 3D with live prices.

Why Modular Furniture Is the Sustainable Choice
Modular furniture is more sustainable than flat-pack. Six reasons why: real wood, repairability, tool-free disassembly, local manufacture, and a real second-hand future.
