With the motif of a naturally shaped “iceberg”, a single sofa with an asymmetric and different surface composition. It changes depending on the viewing angle, and the unpredictable change in shape does not make viewers and users bored. Although it has a geometrical shape, it looks like a part of nature when placed in space. In the distance, you don’t know if it's an object, or furniture, or a chair, and even if it's a chair, it's a sculptural existence that you don't know where to sit or where the backrest is, but it's soft and comfortable to sit on. It is a piece of furniture that is surprising and relativistic.

自然造形の”氷山”をモチーフとしたアンシンメトリックで異なる面の構成体によるシングルソファー。見る角度によって変化があり、予測のつかない形状の変化で見る人、使う人を飽きさせない。幾何的な形態構成でありながら、空間に置くと自然の一部のようでもある。遠目にはオブジェなのか家具なのか椅子なのか、椅子だとしてもどこが座面で背もたれなのかわからない彫刻的な存在でありながら、座ると柔らかくて心地よい、という意外性、相対性をもつ家具である。
