Kotan Stool - Upholstered

Stools from CondeHouse, Designed by Naoto Fukasawa

Product description

W43 D43 H46 cm

The latest product to emerge from Conde House’s ongoing collaboration with internationally acclaimed designer Naoto Fukasawa, KOTAN is an optically light, literally light, yet materially robust chair that is built to last.

Launched in 2019, KOTAN utilises Japanese ash and leather or fabric upholstery to create a pared-down yet friendly form that fits perfectly into both residential and contract contexts, in particular hospitality settings like restaurants and cafés. (It’s stackable, too!)

Sustainability is key here: minimal material usage and a design language that transcends trends make for a long-life, timeless product that avoids obsolescence.

Concept

The concept of the chair, representing the third collection produced in collaboration with him, is “a long-life product of the next era.” Strength, comfort, and lightness were achieved at a high level through the process to eliminate its elements to simplicity. This remarkable chair will last for years to come. The name KOTAN means village or town in the language of Hokkaido natives. Its versatile use allows for it to be used alone, as a set of chairs at the dining table where family members gather, or in cafes and restaurants. No matter where it is used, ambiance becomes gentle by the Hokkaido ash material.
