About Tie Paepae noho
He paepae noho rākau a Tie i hoahoatia mō te tokorua kia noho tahi i te taha o tētahi ki tētahi. Ka whakairotia ā-ringa te nohoanga me te tuarā mai i te poro rākau kotahi, nō reira kāore he rākau whakapiko, he pera, he tāwiri rānei e whakamahia ana. Mā ngā waru me ngā māripi ā-ringa tuku iho o Hapani e hanga ngā kōpiko, e pupuri hoki i te ātaahua māori o te rākau kia kitea tonutia. Mā te tuarā kōpiko e āhei ai te tokorua e noho tahi ana ki te okioki tata ki a rāua anō. He pai a Tie mō te kai, mō te pānui me ngā waewae e toro atu ana, mō te takoto rānei i ngā tū āhua rerekē. I oti te āhua o nāianei i te tau 2020 i Tōkiō, Hapani.

- Usingtraditional Japanese hand tools, the beautiful lines of our furniture are individually hand carved, and not bent, to showcase the natural beauty of wood.
We don't use automation machines, but we are developing them as a product. - Design Challenge
- It is a chair that requires daily training and skill as a craftsman. From the first model to the current model, it took us seven years to create the current model.
The chair is not only beautiful, but it is also very comfortable to sit in and to touch. - Research
- Every part of the product should have a meaning.It should have an excellent function.This is the ultimate in simplicity.We believe that the pursuit of simplicity results in beautiful design.
- Inspiration
- The tie chair 2020 is carved with the concept a chair that helps couples get along. Furniture meant to rest one's body, we believe the chair's height and angle of the seating and coping boards, the strength to withstand weight and body movement and other components allow for infinite possibilities.
We feel that pursuing the beauty of the chair, to all intents and purposes, is as important as the function it serves. We want it to satisfy the space and time we spend on it to be elegant and meaningful.
As a seating for dining or to kick up your feet to enjoy your favorite book, it should suite any desired situation comfortably. - Project Duration
- The "tie chair 2020" in its current form was completed in 2020 after repeated model changes since 2013. It is manufactured in Tokyo, Japan.
- Operation Flow
- The tie chair can be used in the same way as a standard wooden bench.
You can sit comfortably with your legs stretched out, or you can lie down and assume various positions. - Image Credits
