So, is it usable? How would you fit this chair into a landscape? A stand alone piece maybe? Part of some sort of set? I dunno.
As for myself I am having a hard time getting past the milk crate look.
Kinokoto
Kinokoto is a Japanese company that designs all sorts of modern looking furniture, if you have a chance check some of it out. But it’s all in Japanese, so fair warning.
