An homage to the masters of early 20th century Modernism, the Sofa with Arms armchair by Shiro Kuramata has a structure made of chromed tubular metal, padded with polyurethane foam and upholstered with the fabrics and leathers from the collection.

The dynamic lines and the chosen materials define its contemporary style, while the simplicity of its innate elegance is undeniably evocative of the distinctive Japanese style.


Shiro Kuramata

Born in Tokyo in 1934, Kuramata grew up during World War II and the American occupation of Japan. In 1953, he graduated from Tokyo polytechnic, where he studied wood art and then worked for a local furniture company, Teikokukizai. Shortly afterwards, he enrolled at the Kuwasawa Design School in Tokyo.

A design icon, he was the Japanese designer who best epitomized the spirit of the era in which he lived, through his highly significant products and creations. In 1965, he founded the Kuramata Design Office in Tokyo, where he remained until the year of his death, in 1991, working on numerous projects that entered the product and Design hall of fame.

Kuramata first encountered Italian design through Memphis, then in 1987, with Cappellini, for whom he created the Progetti Compiuti chest of drawers series. All of the pieces Kuramata made for the company were incredibly well-received, such as the Steel Pipe Drink Trolly, the Sofa With Arms, the Ko-Ko coffe table, the Bookshelf and the Revolving Cabinet chest of drawers.
