Story
Opposites in balance
The armchair combines apparent opposites: charm and powerfulness, straightness and harmony. The compact cube floats on elegant legs in a balanced harmony of lightness and weight, and the final touches were given particular attention.
A system by EOOS
EOOS designed Jaan as a flexible, expandable and individually combinable system. It is conceived for a unisex interior and combines designs for the worlds of living and office.
