RE:BIRTH
Designed with the ultimate goal of reviving a small factory in the middle of the pandemic.The beautiful curve that emphasises the pipe processing technology is attractive.
The material of the seat is designed to come out from the inside of the pipe. It represents regeneration. Piano Black has the image of cosmetics and is characterised by a glossy feel that looks like a lipstick cut diagonally.
It goes well with both clothes and kimono. Brushed steel and cypress are excellent.
To give them back their pride and their duties, we offered them a design in which the pipe was the protagonis.
