Kuhusu Tokyo Kiti cha Kupumzikia
Tokyo ni kiti cha kupumzikia kilichotengenezwa kwa mbao ngumu za sucupira za Brazili. Fremu yake imeachwa wazi kabisa, ikionyesha viungio vya mbao na sehemu za mbao zilizochongwa kwa umbo maalum. Mikono na viegemeo vya mgongo vinasokotwa kwenye mashine ya kuchonga (lathe) kwa udhibiti wa mikono, vikiwa na nakshi za mbonyeo kwenye ncha zake. Ngozi asilia imepachikwa ndani ya kila kiegemeo cha mkono na kumaliziwa kwa mshono. Mito ya kiti na mgongo inachanganya povu la polyurethane la tabaka mbalimbali na ujazo wa manyoya, ikiwa imefunikwa kwa kitani cha kahawia. Nyuso zake zimesuguliwa kwa mikono na kumaliziwa kwa vanishi isiyong'aa. Muundo huu unatumia kanuni za useremala wa Kijapani kwenye malighafi ya Brazili.

Nyuma ya Muundo
Vifaa vya Habari
Mikopo, wanachama wa timu na maelezo ya kiufundi yaliyotolewa na mbuni.
- Sifa za Kipekee
- Tokyo asserts craftsmanship as structure and expression. Defined by its fully exposed wooden frame in solid Brazilian sucupira, the lounge chair reveals precision woodworking through manually operated lathe-turned arms with subtle concave detailing at the ends. An inlaid leather armrest refines the tactile experience, balancing substantial material presence with aesthetic lightness and disciplined form.

- Lounge chair, Solid wood furniture, Japanese craftsmanship, Brazilian sucupira, Exposed structure, Artisanal woodworking, Contemporary seating, Minimalist design, Leather inlay
- Teknolojia ya Uzalishaji
- Tokyo is manufactured in certified solid Brazilian sucupira hardwood. Structural components are precision machined, with arms and back supports shaped on a mechanically driven lathe under manual control. Armrests incorporate recessed detailing for flush leather inlay. Elements are hand sanded to refine concave terminations. The base is assembled from solid planks with radiused edges. Upholstery combines multi density polyurethane foam and feather filling. Finished with water based matte varnish.
- Changamoto ya Ubunifu
- The main challenge was achieving formal discipline while working with substantial volumes of solid wood. Balancing structural mass with refined proportion required precise control during lathe shaping and manual finishing. Internally, the project sought to reinterpret Japanese woodworking principles within a Brazilian material context. Externally, contemporary production constraints demanded efficiency without compromising craft integrity, requiring careful coordination between technique, material and artisanal execution.
- Utafiti
- Research focused on refining solid sucupira structure through controlled manual processes. The objective was to test how lathe shaped components and proportional studies could enhance structural precision. Methodology included full scale prototyping and ergonomic evaluation. Data was collected through physical mockups and material testing. Experiments centered on hand guided finishing. Results confirmed durability and refined surface quality, reinforcing craft driven production in contemporary furniture.
- Msukumo
- Tokyo was inspired by the principles of Japanese woodworking, where precision, restraint and respect for material define construction. The project explores how substantial volumes of solid wood can achieve visual lightness through disciplined detailing and controlled form. By prioritizing hand guided processes, even when using mechanical tools, the design embraces an a mano approach, valuing the artisan gesture over automated production.
- Muda wa Mradi
- The project started in July 2025 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and was completed in October 2025. It was officially launched in November 2025 as part of the Tokyo Collection, a broader furniture series inspired by Japanese culture and craftsmanship.
- Mtiririko wa Uendeshaji
- Tokyo is experienced as a balance between structure and comfort. The solid wood frame provides visual stability, while the layered cushions offer a soft and supportive seat. The recessed leather armrest enhances tactile contact, creating a refined resting point for the hands. Its proportions encourage a relaxed posture without excess, allowing the user to feel supported by craftsmanship rather than hidden structure.
