The tie chair 2020 is carved with the concept a chair that helps couples get along. The curve of the backrest is designed in such a way that when two people sit side by side, their bodies naturally snuggle together.

Facing each other or side-by-side, the idea is to provide a format-less space allowing for people to be comfortable as they please.
