The Hug armchair, with its distinctive curved arms, looks as if it's reaching out with open arms, inviting you in with a gentle embrace.The Black ver. uses iron acetate, which reacts with the tannins naturally present in the wood, resulting in a deep, rich black finish that retains the wood grain and vessels, unlike typical black paint finishes.
This is my first collection, themed "It's not sophisticated, but it has a certain charm." The Japanese word "yabottai" ( 野暮ったい ) often carries a negative connotation, but I've chosen to reinterpret it positively, transforming it into something endearing.While allowing a hint of human touch, I embrace the quirky nuance that draws people in, even if it isn't stylish in the conventional sense. I blend simple yet catchy forms with the atmosphere created by materials and textures, presenting them as a hybrid of functional furniture, such as chairs and cabinets, and artistic objects.
