About the Item

OBI chair is inspired by the rich Japanese culture. It's name takes its roots from Obi - a belt, which is used in Kimono traditional Japanese costume. The pillows of the armchair are fixed from only one side, giving freedom of interacting with the design object. Olga Engel harmoniously mixes luxury with minimalism, functionality and ergonomics with a light mood and a touch of irony. Olga's design is always a personal story, that involves unique charisma and charm for each and every object and the space itself. Her practice is fuelled by her desire to metamorphose ordinary objects into whimsical design pieces by giving them new, unexpected functions. Olga Engel’s pieces can be found in private collections across Europe and USA as well as at Moscow Design Museum.
