The structures unique to material have been the core of Tokujin Yoshioka’s chair designs; such as “Honey-pop” made of piled up papers to form a honey-comb structure, “PANE chair” in which the fiber itself is the structural body, and “VENUS – Natural crystal chair” which takes its shape by making crystals grow.

For this project, Tokujin Yoshioka designed the structure itself and created an innovative chair made of acrylic resin. It is formed by casting with two layers of matrix-state structure using an injection molding technique.

This chair was realized when Tokujin Yoshioka’s experimental creations stemming from numbers of studies met the Kartell’s edgy yet sophisticated technology which broadens the possibility of acrylic resin.
