Our story

Why we're here.

We came from brands like Peloton and Neiman Marcus—places where quality and user experience mattered. But when we became parents, we were stunned that this standard didn’t apply to kids’ products.

We did the research. Read the reviews. Bought everything. And still, it all fell short—flimsy materials, toxic finishes, crummy design. Products made for Instagram, not real life.

Exhausted and frustrated, we decided to build the products we wish existed.

Going all in.

We brought together world-class designers and engineers to wage war on crappy kids’ products—starting with play furniture.

Bauen was born. We left our corporate jobs and went all in.

We build products for real life—not a catalog. Every material, every angle, every decision is driven by our company mantra: No Compromises Allowed.

From our family to yours.

We’re backed by our families and the growing community of parents who believe—like we do—that our kids deserve better.

This is personal for us. And we’re so glad you’re here.
