Kristalia 2022: TONBO
Kensaku Oshiro has designed the "Tonbo" chair for the Italian furniture manufacturer Kristalia, whose backrest refers to a shy creature of nature.
The Berlin-based studio Läufer & Keichel
has created a chair and an armchair for
Kristalia with soft, embracing lines. The
name recalls the number two, which recurs
throughout the design project starting with
the two elliptical surfaces of the seat and
backrest, which sensually revolves around
the seat. Available with a slide-frame base or
with four solid wood legs, the chair and
armchair can be upholstered with the fabrics
and leather in the catalogue, with the option
of different upholstery for the seat and
backrest to create contrasting or matching
combinations.
