Agrémentés de détails de fabrication rappelant la tradition japonaise, les sièges Tori Nest jouent sur leurs volumes arrondis, sur la légèreté de leurs épaisseurs et sur l’apparente simplicité formelle d’un projet très élaboré.
La structure en tubes d’acier peint du dossier en corde tressée proposée dans deux couleurs - Écru et Marron foncé et dont le motif évoque un cannage, mais avec un maillage plus large, repose sur une base en teck naturel ou en acajou teinté Dark Brown supportée par des pieds en aluminium peints dans une finition brillante anti-trace couleur Bronze.
Le fauteuil Torii Nest de Minotti a un aspect léger et élégant et dont le cercle parfait accueille l’assise rembourrée, Torii Nest Outdoor a été conçu pour répondre aux besoins les plus divers, autant en termes d’ergonomie que de fonctionnalité.
Born in Toronto in 1977, Oki Sato is the head of the famous Nendo design studio. After studying architecture at Waseda University in Tokyo, he founded the Japanese studio in 2002. Nendo means "modelling clay" and represents flexibility and the possibility of perpetual reinvention. In 2005, a second studio was opened in Milan. Oki Sato's philosophy is to create little 'Wow' moments in everyday life. His desire to convey the way people interact with objects is reflected in minimalist forms with a singular character. "With our creations, we want to add something extra. That little detail that catches the eye and creates an emotion. His work has been exhibited at the MoMa in New York, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. He works with some of the biggest names in design, including Cappellini, De Padova, Moroso and BoConcept. The poetry of his installations contributes to his international reputation. Sobriety is always present in his creations, which are not without a touch of humour. The resulting purity is in keeping with Japanese tradition. Oki Sato took up the challenge of making design accessible to everyone. He was voted Designer of the Year several times, in 2012 by Wallpaper Magazine and Elle Deco, and in 2015 at Maison & Objet.
