Musubi Stool

Chinen Mizuki Stool Furniture Wednesday, 11 November 2026

Musubi

This stool was inspired by the word Musubi. Musubi is an ancient Japanese Shinto concept, and it is the idea that things and life are formed by connecting various things. The shape of this stool is based on the motif of a Mizuhiki bow knot. When viewed from the front, the design is linear, but when viewed from an angle, the seat appears to have a gentle curve. When not in use, it can be folded up for compact storage. It can be easily assembled by simply inserting the parts without using nails or screws.

Toma Living Sofa

Yuto Yamada Living Sofa Furniture Monday, 9 November 2026

Toma

Toma is a sofa designed for living spaces. The form of Toma comes from the idea of wrapping a single piece of fabric around the whole seat, in the manner of crepe cloth. The result is a continuous surface with soft undulations that envelops the person seated. Stretch fabric was used to achieve the complex curved surface, which was difficult to produce. Toma measures 1580 mm in width, 950 mm in depth and 850 mm in height. The design explores a freer form for a common piece of furniture.

Grace Lounge Chair

Daniel Devadder Lounge Chair Furniture Sunday, 8 November 2026

Grace

Grace is a design that translates feelings that a single word can not describe. This in combination with the conviction that form does not always follow function, but should be able to follow emotion. The result is a sculpture-like design made from a 3D printed frame, partially covered with foam for added comfort and an elastic yet durable fabric. From an aesthetic point of view, it has an elegance and shape that is somehow timeless. It can match different finishes and materials and blend into different environments: from high-end use in a hotel lobby to furniture in a private home.

Flowerblock Shelf

Chinen Mizuki Shelf Furniture Saturday, 7 November 2026

Flowerblock

Flowerblock is a shelf designed to serve as both storage furniture and a room divider. The design is inspired by flower blocks, concrete units with geometric openwork patterns used in Okinawan architecture, which filter strong sunlight while letting air pass. Gaps between the boxes give the shelf a light and open appearance. Stainless steel rods connect the boxes for stability, solid white ash supports the load-bearing points, and plywood reduces the overall weight. The shelf has no back panel, so it can be placed against a wall or in the centre of a room.
