Posted on April 17, 2008 by admin

Japanese designer unit Nendo designed “Diamond Chair” for Lexus at Salone Del Mobile 2008, which started on the 16th of April. This is the 4th time that Lexus exhibits in Milan. I have seen all of them since the beginning, but the installation by Nendo is definitely my favorite. When you enter the room, first you see the darkness, and find these beautiful “Diamond Chairs” which are slowly moving as if they are living creatures. The movie is coming soon!

Kazadokei by Nendo

This is a limited edition of 100. It is designed by Nendo, who is one of the most successful Japanese product design studios.
