Cushions are polyurethane foam and eco-friendly viscose fibre with completely removable upholstery, and the feet are extruded aluminium in polished Bronze.

Story

From indoors to open air

Torii Nest was designed for indoor environments in 2020 and then moved to open-air living spaces. The chairs and sofas keep structural details linked to Japanese tradition.

A nest of cord

The woven backrest takes its design from cane, but with a larger mesh that lets light and air through. It embraces and encloses the soft cushions.
