The HAY Uchiwa Lounge Chair feels new and exciting, with a striking contemporary openness that invites relaxation. The design’s grounding in traditional Japanese forms gives it a sense of familiarity and warmth. The quilted version’s curved shell has been specially designed for domestic spaces, with additional padding to enhance the chair’s sense of enfolding warmth and comfort. Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien have created a sculptural piece of furniture that draws the eye, making it the ideal centrepiece for any living or bedroom space.
