Kiri is a set of round accent tables combining rattan with solid wood and lacquer in an aesthetically fluent dialogue. It may be difficult to imagine how such a supple material like the rattan used to shape the base can support the weight of the wooden tops, but the fact is rattan is actually strong. The project thus intertwines the two raw materials characterizing Expormim?s identity.
Finishes:
Base in rattan in natural or stained in a selection of colours, top in solid oak in natural or stained in a selection of colours
Dimensions:
DIA400 x H550 mm

The Odin Chair started life as a commission for a series of boutique alpine properties in Niseko, Japan.

There is a structural harmony in the combination of the die-cast aluminium legs, that cradle the solid ash seat and curved backrest.
Babila is a chair able to move along tradition and innovation with great agility. Solid ash legs and plywood shell in variable thickness with upholstered seat. The result is an airy and comfortable sitting with a careful and accurate use of wood.
Even a classical image, as a railed chair, in the hands of Philippe Starck acquires a particular connotation. In Pip-e, the sequence of horizontal elements, which create the seat and back definetly, takes on a strong chiaroscuro and goes, unexpectedly, to accompany the bending of the knees.
