In Japanese heiko means balance, or equilibrium – a term that often describes structure holding itself in poise, and a fitting idea for this chair.
Built on a solid wood frame, Heiko keeps its design clean and understated: a base of three visible legs, unexpected at first, brought into resolution by soft curves and rounded, cylindrical forms. The padded seat and shaped backrest, both formed from curved plywood, are drawn into the frame through clearly defined elements that let you read how the chair is made. It is available upholstered in leather or fabric.
