The cultural anthropologist Gordon Huse said that there are two customs characterized in our lives – sitting on a chair, or sitting on the ground. For centuries, the Japanese have sat on the ground (the ‘za-seat’). The mixture of the meditated style of yoga from India and the religious training from China influenced this custom. After Dogen brought Soto Zen to Japan, the tatami mat became associated with the traditional tea ceremony, and has always been used throughout Japan for this custom. If you like, think of tatami as a philosophy of sitting.
And the Tatami Flight Chair and Bench Sofa are a modern interpretation of this philosophy. The frame – available in both light or dark bamboo – has tatami as the seating base and kimono fabric as its backing. The tatami base concentrates one’s attention on thought, and allows for peace of mind in meditation. And no extended periods of sitting on the ground are required!

Looking soft and comfortable is what the Fauteuil Juju chair look like. Designed by the true master in assembling and grouping products and design Mr. Edward for an Italian manufacturer Moroso, the Fauteuil Juju has been presented in Orgatec 2008, Cologne. With no armrest on its side, I find this chair saves some space, which is perfect for houses with small areas or those who have limited space in their homes. The color combination of pink and some sort of a pale orange is such a perfect combination for me. I should own this chair once available in my place, for this is perfect in my small room.
