“TAKO” means “kite” in Japanese, and this sofa combines a light image of flying in the sky in a dream with solid comfort. As an expression of relaxation, the design language geometrically captures the Japanese instrument “magewappa” that has a softness and solidity. It expresses the emphasis on softness, the geometric contrast between squares and circles, and the coexistence of rationality and passion. The TAKO sofa is characterized by the use of a three-dimensional curved wooden frame for the backrest, which is a key element of the entire TAKO collection. It is a design piece that emphasizes the artisanal elements of human technique by combining industrial elements with high production efficiency, and is an optimized combination of human wisdom and industrial knowledge in an intermediate area that is neither industrial nor artisanal.
