Design by:Kazuteru Murasawa

Miyazaki Chair Factory
The Sail presents a new challenge with its knock-down design, allowing for effortless assembly by anyone through a straightforward tightening of bolts. The name ‘Sail’ is inspired by the distinctive leather back, designed to resemble a sail billowing in the wind.
Reminiscent of the graceful expansion of a sail, Sail offers firm lower back support, instilling a reassuring sense of stability. As you lean back, the chair gently conforms to your body. The carefully balanced leather seat strikes the perfect equilibrium between firmness and softness, ensuring enduring comfort even during prolonged use. Available exclusively in canvas and leather, SAIL is designed to be lightweight and easy to handle.

About Kazuteru Murasawa
Born in Tokyo in 1965. He graduated from ICS College of Arts. After working at Kenzo Tarumi Design Office, he studied abroad in Italy in 1989. Since 1990 he has been working at Sergio Calatroni Architectural Office (Milan). He is mainly in charge of furniture design, interior design, and exhibition hall design. In 1994, Murasawa Design opened. Based on the belief that "design is in everything we do and live", we practice that drawing diagrams at a desk is not design. So far, he has visited more than 200 factories in Japan and overseas. When I walk down the street, when I travel by plane, when I look at a factory in operation, when I talk to someone, I spin out designs from there.
