Layered side panels create the illusion of a single, continuous flowing structure. The silhouette begins at the crest, descending smoothly to form the seat, reaching the floor, and rising again into the armrest.

​

Inspired by the artistry of Chinese calligraphy, the thickness of the panels varies dynamically with their orientation, mimicking the organic weight changes of a brush stroke as it moves across the page.

Caring

Refined Detail: Chamfered edges on the handrests eliminate sharp corners, ensuring a safe and tactilely pleasant experience.

Gentle

Ergonomic Support: A natural, sweeping angle follows the body’s contours, providing continuous support from the lap down to the upper calves.
