Bosco armchair by Naoto Fukasawa for Molteni&C

Dezeen Showroom: Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa has created the Bosco chair for Italian furniture brand Molteni&C with a curved form "that invites the body to let go".

Fukasawa designed the minimalist Bosco chair with a deep, curved form to envelop the body of the sitter.

According to Molteni&C, the design is intended to evoke rolling hills, drawing on the designer's visits to Tuscany.

"Bosco is an armchair that invites the body to let go," said Molteni&C.

"Inspired by the gentle hills of Tuscany, its soft, generous volume and subtly divided contours, echo the rhythms of the landscape, a place where the body sinks in naturally, as if resting on warm, yielding earth," it continued.

"Bosco is not just a chair, but a quiet refuge, a moment of calm, comfort and belonging."

Each armless Bosco chair has a base structure of painted metal, while the seat can be upholstered in fabric or leather in a variety of colours.

The upholstery wraps the entire body of the chair and is finished with subtle stitching, creating a minimalist appearance.
