Description
Karimoku offers a subtle take on a padded seat with this armchair from its Castor series. Upholstered with a durable fabric in the same color as the chair’s frame, the generously sized Plus offers even more expansive comfort than the original, smaller-scale Castor. Crafted in sturdy Japanese oak and plywood and sustainably produced, the seating comes in a choice or natural, gray or black transparent finish to emphasize the tactile beauty of the woodgrain.

Brand
Karimoku New Standard
A traditional Japanese maker of wood furniture for 70-odd years, Karimoku turned an exciting new page when it relaunched in 2009 with an international roster of contributing designers as Karimoku New Standard. The reboot was twofold—to create modern pieces using its heritage of Japanese craftsmanship techniques and to revitalize native forests by targeting significantly undervalued hardwoods. That precious resource, from low-diameter chestnut, maple and oak trees, had previously ended up mostly as wood chips for paper pulp.
Meanwhile, the design world was gobsmacked by the company’s splendidly functional, often joyously colored furnishings emanating from its collaborating partners. From European, Scandinavian and Japanese creative talents, they include Swedish studio TAF, the Swiss team Big-Game and cult Dutch design duo Scholten & Baijings. The revived Karimoku concept, termed “high-tech and high-touch” by brand creative director David Glaettli, melds the latest technology with unstinting hand-finishing for a truly collectable array of refreshingly unique standouts.
