As the designer himself explains much of his inspiration comes from the design philosophy of Isamu Moguchi and the idea that everything is sculpted. Louw Roets’s pieces have this artistic vision as if they were sculptured and yet have kept the ability of being functional. Known for working mostly with wood or leather, in the Poise chair, we see how beautifully the designer has combined these two materials to achieve graceful and balanced lines which. And we can enjoy a modern chair design with elegant lines.
