Tokyo Lounge Chair

Tokyo

Tokyo is a lounge chair made of solid Brazilian sucupira hardwood. The frame is fully exposed, showing the joinery and the shaped wooden parts. The arms and back supports are turned on a lathe under manual control, with concave detailing at the ends. A natural leather inlay is recessed into each armrest and finished with stitching. The seat and back cushions combine layered polyurethane foam and feather filling, upholstered in brown linen. Surfaces are hand sanded and finished with a matte varnish. The design applies Japanese woodworking principles to a Brazilian material.

Tokyo Lounge Chair by Isabelle De Mari has been featured as an exceptional representation of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Tokyo Lounge Chair was awarded the Silver A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2026. The A' Furniture Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design accolade that recognizes superior design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
