Chair Ki with armrests
The lumbar support of the Ki chair is designed to provide comfort for people of all body types. The seat and back recline at an angle that provides comfort for long sittings.
The one-piece lower support flows smoothly into the slim frame of the back, contrasting shapes in and emphasizing the soft elements of the item.
The entire Ki collection is a compositional interaction of lines and shapes The soft elements and the solid wood frame are perceived differently depending on the angle. For example, seen from the side, the solid wood is seen as a shape while the fabric elements turn into a line. When viewed from the front and rear, the line and the shape are reversed.
The next module - armrests, allows you to transform the chair into an object for longer sitting times. The short armrests of the Ki chair make it easy to slide under the table and provide the necessary support for the forearms while resting on the chair.

The items of the Ki collection can be attributed to Japandi stylistics, which is characterised by clean lines, simplicity, sufficiency, naturalness, functionality and harmony with nature. To a greater extent, the collection has taken on Japanese undertones inspired by the image of the Torii Gate which is a traditional symbol of harmony between man and nature and also represents a symbolic transition between the mundane and the sacred.
Torii are often made of wood and have a simple structure, consisting of two vertical posts and two horizontal beams connected at the top by a roof with a characteristic Japanese architectural shape. The stool has become the basic item of the modular collection. The simplest object by function, it encapsulated the image of Torii to the utmost. Its outlines, angles and characteristically raised "tail" visually replicate the architectural techniques distinctive of Japanese gates.
Just as you can change the meaning of a Japanese character by adding a new stroke, by adding a new module to a stool, a chair appears and then a chair with armrests.
The Ki collection has incorporated all the key features of the Japandi style, blending Japanese design elements with modern Scandinavian trends. Its main principle is practicality and a careful attitude to natural resources, which is also one of the main values of UNIKA.
The new collection is characterized by simplicity and harmony of forms that create a unique interior image. For us, the house is a sacred place that gives strength, protects from the external, the mundane, and allows you to plunge into the world that we create with our own hands. We hope that the items of the Ki collection will become more than just a piece of furniture: a source of harmony, tranquility and comfort in any space.
