Friends of KOTA: Morgan

From Cape Town to Utrecht, from vinyl records to plant-filled corners, Morgan’s world is full of rhythm, warmth, and intentional design. We're excited to introduce this passionate DJ and music lover as the latest guest in our Friends of KOTA series.

Morgan’s biggest inspiration? Without a doubt—music. From listening to Queen and King on his dad’s hi-fi as a kid to building his current vinyl collection, music has shaped his identity and the space he calls home. “Music is everything for me,” he says. “If you know me, you’ll know that.”

His interior design style mirrors this passion—lush with greenery, brimming with warmth, and alive with sound. “It’s cosy, it’s full of lamps and plants. There’s always music playing. It’s a space that’s slowly been built up in my head and brought to life.”

We’re proud that a KOTA sofa bed has become part of that journey. Morgan’s terracotta brown model fits seamlessly into his curated space—an inviting, versatile piece that serves both as a beautiful centerpiece and a practical sofa bed for movie nights or hosting friends. “It folds out into a double bed in the lounge—it’s just super comfy and versatile,” he shares. The washable, changeable covers also make it as functional as it is stylish.

We hope Morgan continues to create the melancholic house beats that fuel our KOTA office playlists—and now, hopefully, in even greater comfort.
