Claesson Koivisto Rune in Japan
When Claesson Koivisto Rune were given the assignment to design a collection of furniture for traditional wood manufacturing in Fuchu, Hiroshima Prefecture, they presented their concept like this: “We live in a world of five elements that we experience through our five senses. Five is gently odd. Five is not too many. Five is beautiful.” The design feature is a shape that combines a circle with a pentagon. The chair, the table, the clothes rail and the other members of the Five family all share this shape. All made in solid wood.
