Brio chairs

Mikiya Kobayashi

Prototype

Mixing a vintage look with splashes of modernity has the potential to go so very wrong. But Mikiya Kobayahi pitched it perfectly with his 'Brio' Chair. The wicker backrest played on our heart strings reminding us of Marcel Breuer's much loved Cesca chair, while the thin white metal legs and coloured felt seat hark to a more contemporary age. Not surprisingly we weren't the only ones who picked up on the design, Kobayashi can't reveal too much but nods to the fact that there are currently at least two companies very keen on producing it. Keep a sharp eye on his website for further details.
