A versatile and ergonomic lounge chair, inspired by the silhouette of Micky Mouse. The unique form is completely customisable, bringing a contemporary Japanese style into any interior. It’s exceptional transformability allows the user to get creative. Tilt the adjustable headrests forward or backwards independently of each other, rotate the knobs at each side to adjust the recline of the backrest, and even flip out the lower base to transform the piece from a chair into a chaise lounge. All these features make for a perfect seating position no matter the setting, and ensure an ever changing experience to enjoy and adjust with time.

Now an icon on postmodern furniture, the combination of Japanese design and the peak of Italian craftsmanship combines to create a timeless style that feels both playful and elegant within a space.
