Inspired by the shapes of traditional Japanese garden tools, Foku is a full upholstery lounge chair made of simple geometric shapes merged into a sculptural furniture design. Foku meaning fork in Japanese, is a reference to the traditional rake tools used in Japanese Zen gardens for centuries. The fork, used to gently create minimalistic lines and waves in the sand, is reinterpreted into the fluted seat of the Foku Chair. Several layers of carefully chosen foam types is combined to ensure a soft and highly comfortable seating experience, as well as emphasizing the sculptural and voluminous shapes of the chair. Combine several Foku Chairs to create a sofa lounge seating. Each Foku Chair includes two metal brackets, which can be mounted underneath the legs with a small screw.
Foku comes in three colours Bouclé, Off-White and in the new colour Deep Taupe. Bouclé is known for its unique looped and curled yarn, adds a tactile, visually engaging texture that complements the chair’s aesthetic. The Foku Chair also comes in Taupe fabric from Sunproof. This fabric is highly resistant to stains, water, and sunlight, making it very easy to clean as well.
