For us at COS, art and design is the source of inspiration behind everything. Influences from the worlds of architecture, photography, textiles and ceramics permeate our collection. They filter down through to the visual concepts of our stores, the art direction of our campaigns and the content on cosstores.com. Since the beginning, we’ve celebrated our connection to the art world by collaborating with artists, creative people and innovative thinkers on all kinds of projects. A modern, functional and considered approach is our design philosophy. We choose longevity over passing trends. Our atelier values craftsmanship, putting this first and foremost. Every piece we create is timeless and made to last. From the mood behind a collection to the subtle construction of a cuff, these creative details are part of what gives our understated garments integrity. Style comes with substance, form follows function. Step inside one of our stores and you’ll find a calm, modern space informed by a sense of minimalism. Our stores draw on the refreshing simplicity of contemporary art galleries to create an inspiring place to shop and to work. When opening a new store, we retain and restore as much of the original features as possible, leading to an eclectic mix of historical architectural influences that combine with our own aesthetic. We believe that learning and development goes hand in hand with being happy and engaged. If you are looking for progression, we will encourage you to take ownership of your career and help you to achieve your goals. As well as tailored training programs, annual appraisals and regular feedback, you’ll also have access to our custom online learning portal with hundreds of e-books, podcasts and video seminars. We are committed to being an inclusive employer. This is one of our founding principles. We believe in fair wages and working hours, freedom of association and equal opportunities for everyone.
