Anker says about Kumo
"In close collaboration with Miyazaki-san, I wanted to push the existing boundaries for wooden furniture design and function with Kumo.

'What can and dare one do if the goal is to transcend the traditional armchair and take the whole design to a new level?' That was the question that occupied us.

The task was like assembling a 2000-piece puzzle with wood, canvas, leather, and metal. After this year-long process, I have ended up with a chair that I dare to call a new and different little icon, where the weightlessness of the design gives it a timelessness and references to a long and proud history of design in both Japan and Denmark.

I dream that Kumo can help push the conventions for armchair aesthetics, comfort and function so that we only need to buy one armchair for the rest of our lives.

It is a chair which has changed me as a designer in this great work with everything, right down to the smallest detail.”

Product information
Kumo is Anker's take on the ultimate armchair conceived and built under the principle of 'design without limitations.'

With its organic form, purity of style and enormous level of detail, it is a chair created for those who want both the highest quality and a design object for posterity.

Made of oak and walnut and with moving parts in stainless steel and brass of the highest quality, Kumo stands as a manifestation of the perfect balance between form and function.

Kumo hides the highest structural complexity and, at the same time, takes its place in any room as a functional art object, where aesthetics and details merge into a larger whole.

The high level of detail also makes Kumo an uncompromising chair in both aesthetics and construction, right down to the smallest specially designed bolt, unique shape and assembly.

With an adjustable neck pillow and a deep seat, Kumo creates an open and inviting embrace that flows intuitively with the user.

An armchair created for the soul, the eye and the future as much as for the function.

About Kumo
Kumo is an experience of weightlessness and stillness. An oasis in everyday life where time and space can expand and open up horizons.

The name 'Kumo' means 'cloud' in Japanese and symbolises the freedom and infinite potential of the chair as its own airy space, where there is room for contemplation, thought breaks or just a rest.

A 'sitting room' where the big visions and small thoughts can come up in everyday life with otherwise many impressions

Kumo is an example that design and thoughts can grow into something extraordinary if we create space and freedom for this growth.

A chair where you can find a moment of calm, weightlessness and unlimited time.

A chair built to follow people and families through their lives.
