Year
2016-2018
The Aïku collection represents the ultimate synthesis of aesthetics and functionality, embodying the distinctive style of designer Jean Marie Massaud. Designed to effectively address the complex demands of the contract world, Aïku delivers a high level of comfort.
The version with table is ideal for multifunctional rooms, conference spaces, and auditoriums, while the possibility of hooking the seats together and stacking them makes it easy to optimise space. Like the concise Japanese poems that inspired its name, Aïku encapsulates a refined architectural simplicity, perfectly suited to dynamic work environments.
