Thaw Armchair

Product design

Thaw sofa is one of the latest works launched by the Japanese design studio Junpei Tamaki Design during this year’s Salone Satellite in Milan.

It is a reference to images of thawed fluffy snow, producing a wonderful feeling of softness and comfort. The curved silhouette of Thaw is accompanied by a rounded oak detail that frames the whole piece — a continuous line to serve the seat, arm and backrest in one, resulting in a great formal simplicity.

I particularly like how the wood is integrated so well on this kind of design, achieving a sense of quality and warmth. Photography by Takumi Ota.
