# Living Cozy

> Living Cozy is an editorially-driven home and furniture publication that helps people find brands and products they'll actually love. We test furniture in real homes over weeks and months, interview the founders behind the brands we cover, and tell readers honestly what's worth their money — and what isn't.

Living Cozy is not a marketplace and does not sell furniture directly. It is an affiliate-supported publication — we earn commissions when readers purchase through our links, and we disclose this transparently on every page that contains affiliate links. Recommendations are based on editorial judgment and hands-on testing, not commission rates.

The site was founded by Ash Read in 2019 after the frustration of trying to find purposeful furniture brands online. It became part of Brand Bridge Media LLC in August 2023. Brand Bridge Media also operates homesupply.co. The flagship publication lives at livingcozy.com.

## Editorial approach

- **Human-written.** AI is used as a research tool. The voice, the hands-on testing, and the editorial judgment are always human.
- **Hands-on tested.** Real contributors live with products in their actual homes, often for weeks or months, before reviews are published.
- **Transparent about affiliate relationships.** Disclosed on every page that contains affiliate links.
- **Brand- and founder-focused.** We profile the people behind the brands and connect readers with their stories, not just their products.
- **Honest about trade-offs.** Reviews acknowledge weaknesses, not just strengths. Price, assembly effort, and who a product is wrong for are always part of the conversation.

## What we are not

Living Cozy is not a retailer, marketplace, or dropshipper. It is an independent editorial publication. Brand placement, product ranking, and content decisions are never sold. Affiliate revenue funds the publication; it does not influence which brands are recommended.
