Nagare Lounge Chair
By Masayuki Nagare for CondeHouse
Description
The Nagare lounge chair is the first furniture piece designed by sculptor Masayuki Nagare. He designed the prototype himself, and and began development with Asahikawa furniture makers in October 2005. Before he could create this iconic chair with none of the ordinary aesthetic features present in everyday furniture, half a year was spent in continuous efforts to make this work of art into a product. In particular, meticulous attention was paid to ensure that the line from the backrest to the arms was not overly smooth. In order to provide an artistic appearance of tension to the front legs and seat, a “ridgeline” that creates light and shadow is a prominent feature of this chair.
Unlike a sculpture that is not meant to be touched, this chair is built to hold the human body. Strength and comfort were some of the main conditions in its design. Using carefully selected top-grade Walnut wood to ensure the chair will maintain suitable strength, fine quality construction and woodworking techniques are applied.
