The comfort of the KAMUY Chair’s wide, deep seat and the prominent angle of the back and seat, was achieved through repeated prototype trials. The back, seat, and arms are smooth to the touch, and its prominent edges give a trim, sharp impression from every angle of view. Subtle, calculated points, such as the slight difference in thickness between the back and front legs, contribute to a masterfully crafted chair with “an overall simple, yet extremely beautiful” design. Experience the classic look of a dining chair, with an added sleek, modern touch.
