Setlyn is a circular furnishing platform designed for international students moving to Sweden for the first time. Oluwaseun and Chinonso help students by offering affordable second-hand furniture that can be bought, rented, and later resold or returned.
The idea
Setlyn is a circular furnishing platform designed for international students moving to Sweden for the first time. Oluwaseun and Chinonso help students settle into unfurnished apartments by offering affordable second-hand furniture that can be bought, rented, and later resold or returned.
By collecting furniture from outgoing students and redistributing it to incoming students, Setlyn reduces waste while making the transition to a new home easier, more affordable, and more sustainable.
The team
Oluwaseun and Chinonso are sustainability advocates, entrepreneurs, and innovators with over a decade of combined experience across agriculture, finance, product management, and community development. As experienced founders, they are passionate about building practical, user-centred solutions that create both social and environmental impact.
Through Setlyn, they combine their expertise in circular economy, innovation, and community-focused design to help international students moving to Sweden feel at home from day one, making sustainable living more accessible, affordable, and convenient.
The reason to join
Oluwaseun and Chinonso applied to Home of the Home Lab because Setlyn aligns closely with the programme’s focus on sustainable living and affordable home solutions. They see this as the right moment to develop the idea into a real pilot, test it with users, and learn from experienced mentors and fellow founders.
They are motivated to be part of a community that is rethinking the future of the home and creating solutions that make everyday life easier.
