Designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the Kawara Armchair combines the high-quality details of Japanese craftsmanship with European design. It has been crafted from moulded plywood, a material chosen not only for its strength and structural stability but also for its aesthetic qualities.
Inspired by Sori Yanagi’s iconic Butterfly stool, the armchair features a three-dimensionally contoured backrest and armrest, which gently hold the user when seated. It has been meticulously crafted using three different moulds for the backrest, armrest and seat, ensuring no need for unadorned reinforcement.
The chair is available in four different finishes natural, matte black, green or grey and is available upholstered in a range of fabrics selected by Koyori.
