Shuwa Tei’s collection of wooden furniture is a boundary-crossing series of wooden chairs and tables that combines traditional craft practice and modern production techniques to create a high-impact hybrid of Western and Asian furniture styles. Each of Tei’s works – the innovative reinterpretations of recognisable forms, such as the Donna and Fly lounge chairs – represents a fusion of design ideas, reaching across different times and places to make something unmistakeably of the present but respectful of the past.
