Design
by Kensaku Oshiro, 2021
As a tribute to Danish furniture design, the Japanese
designer Kensaku Oshiro has created a chair, which, in the most distinguished
way, unites Danish and Japanese design aesthetics. The inspiration from a bay
is embodied in the smoothly curved C form of the wooden backrest, which lies
tangentially on the top of the elegant steel frame and gives a warm and soft
contrast to the steel and leather components.
The construction of the steel frame has a fine balance
between the thin vertical lines of the tubes and the distinct horizontal
elements. Each leg has a small round finish, and the width between the front
legs is wider than between the back legs, which brings symmetry to the chair
and gives it a harmonious and characteristic look.
The solid wood backrest is manufactured by using a
special steam bending technology, and both the backrest and the frame have been
sanded by hand. The frame comes in either black powder coated steel or
stainless steel, and the backrest comes in oak, black lacquered oak, smoked oak
or walnut. The soft, upholstered seat provides a high seating comfort, and is
available in either leather or fabric.
The diverse features of each component are perfectly
balanced in the design and give the chair a refreshing lightness and a unique,
renewed appearance.
