Designers and Mother Nature

Oriental Furniture

Inspired by the fine, luxurious and yet functional style of car dashboards of bygone ages, Yomei demonstrates attention to detail. The soft Yomei buffalo leather enfolds the cubic shapes while the proportions contrast against the sensual material.
The results are elements for low boards, flexible sideboards and display cabinets, all trimmed in ‘made-to-measure’ Yomei buffalo leather. Perfect design is reflected in the detail solutions, allowing the elements to be combined in different ways, depending on your requirements.

The striking development boasts beautiful views and makes smart use of solar shading and natural ventilation to regulate its interiors all year-round. Textile elements fixed on the front of the balconies block direct sunlight and accumulate “air buffer” zone.
