Balloon Chair
This chair was visually inspired by feelings of floating that the main character felt in the French movie, “Le Ballon Rouge”(1953).
A balloon seems to really lift a chair by fixing balloons and a chair to the back wall and realizes a feeling of floating. In addition, the balloons are made of FRP, so they cannot be deflated and blown up. If you sit on this chair, you’ll be able to think positive thoughts even if you are feeling down.

Thin Chair
This is a chair for children that has been constructed using paper with a high level of durability, which is also used for luxury suitcases.
With a thickness of just 1.6mm, the weight of this paper is an extremely light 0.5 kg. When unfolded, more than 400 chairs can be stored in a single cubic meter of space. By simply folding a sheet of paper over itself and fixing the overlapping area into place, the construction of a chair is complete.

However every day starts with a sunrise.
