Congrats to Gallotti&Radice and designers Oscar and Gabriele Buratti for winning the German Design Award 2023 for Akiko. Akiko received the award in the "Excellent Product Design Furniture" category.
The Akiko chair features an upholstered seat and backrest covered in Gallotti&Radice's selection of fabric or leathers. The base is crafted of metal and offers a warm grey finish to complement various upholstery options.
In its lounge chair version, Akiko features soft, enveloping volumes. The seat, which is circular in shape, and the backrest, stretch forward to form two armrests and are both held together by a "warm grey" painted metal frame.
In response to its stunning design, the German Design Award jury stated:
"With its generous, rounded back, Akiko embraces users and promises them a pleasantly soft seating experience thanks to the thick padding. The structure ensures lightness, and the shapes mean that this elegant chair fits in with many interior styles."
2023 PREVIEW
In the preview of the 2023 collection, Akiko is available in a 180-degree swivel movement with return. The 4-spoke base is made of "warm grey" painted metal with finials.
