More information

Designed as one of a contrasting pair for the guestrooms of the Hotel K5 Tokyo. Two
custom-designed seating pieces were each other’s contrast – like masculine and feminine, yin and yang, or ‘takete’ and ‘maluma’ (terms from the psychology of shape association). ‘Maluma’ being a curvaceous bright red ‘love-seat’; a small sofa for two. And ‘Takete’ a harshly angular (yet comfortable) black easy chair.
