Sofa With arms Black edition is a limited edition of the unforgettable armchair Sofa With Arms designed by Shiro Kuramata in 1982. This iconic product was designed with a chromed structure and seat / backrest in woolen cloth in bright colors, to furnish the showrooms and offices of fashion designer Issey Miyake. The synergy in the use of colors and materials between these two great designers has always been very strong. Just think of Kuramata's use of a lively multicolor Terrace for floors and tables in the Miyake spaces or the beautiful perfume bottle he designed. To celebrate this partnership, Cappellini has decided to produce an edition of 33-piece each of the armchair with an anthracite metal frame and velvet covering in four brilliant colors.Blue, green, magenta and alchemilla that immediately recall the clothes of the famous fashion designer. Sofa With Arms Black Edition is ready to become a cult object to collect , like many other Cappellini limited editions.
A design icon, Shiro Kuramata was the Japanese designer who best epitomized the spirit of the era in which he lived, through his highly significant products and creations.
Kuramata first encountered Italian design through Memphis, then in 1987, with Cappellini, for whom he created the Progetti Compiuti chest of drawers series. All of the pieces Kuramata made for the company were incredibly well-received, such as the Steel Pipe Drink Trolly, the Sofa With Arms, the Ko-Ko table, the Bookshelf and the Revolving Cabinet chest of drawers.
