Description

This chair is now in use in one of the capsules of the famous Nakagin Capsule Tower building in Tokyo. The chair's appearance was inspired by the original retrofuturistic interior design of the capsules. The seat is wide enough for the average person to be able to change their position so they can be comfortable in it for a long time, with 45-degree cuts helping the user to comfortably fit in the chair while feeling freedom of movement. Cuts for holding the chair allow it to be moved around easily.
