For more confined office corridors and commercial entryways, Stellar Works offers its iconoclastic Kite seating in a narrow armchair version. Conceived by architect-designer Oki Sato of Japanese studio Nendo, it's meant to take the place of uncomfortable benches often seen in busy lobbies and hallways. "The design takes up minimal space while offering the chair’s occupant a bit of calm and security," he says. Clad in an anodyne speckled grey upholstery, and produced by the Shanghai-based company, the Kite series includes additional options to suit the size of the space and degree of privacy desired.
