New series “SAN” is launched and released on June 16th
Let’s see
the sketch drawn with only three lines first.
Shape born from function
beautifully supports work and life.
The three lines were drawn by German designer Michael Shneider. The development began when He decided to create a common chair with faithful functionality in response to contract demand. These three lines became the basic structure of this chair as it is, and realized light proportions by a rounded wooden frame and weight reduction while maintaining strength.
― Designer Message ―
The name “SAN” comes from the Japanese word “three”. In Germany, when counting with fingers, the thumb, index finger and middle finger are opened. If you turn them down, you will see the three lines of this chair. Germany has the idea of “form follows function” (Lewis Henry Sullivan), which has permeated the Bauhaus educational policy. The design of “SAN” was born from the functions required of the future society, such as the calculated intellectual structure, the simple and lightweight manufacturing without wasting wood or upholstery, usage of local wood. It’s a purely simple chair, but it is the line from the back to the arm that is most satisfactory. It is beautiful with excellent completeness, including the use of leather on the back. Despite the online-only development under the pandemic, we would like to thank each other for their smooth completion with mutual trust and enthusiasm.

Chair (Upholstered Seat)
Although it has a common shape, it shows a crafty beauty and enhances comfort of the upholstered back and seat with the solid wood of Hokkaido birch which has a unique grain. The stitch work of the leather part with sense of craft is an intellectual point. In addition, the sense of size of it with a view to overseas expansion is also a feature, which is a spacious design that allows big men or women to be seated comfortably. When you sit down, you can lean your arms and feel comfortable from your back to arms, also given a sense of security that your body is supported. The chair that is easy for everyone to use, is not only suitable for contracts, but also for various home use situations, and is ideal for dining where you spend a long time. The long A-shaped legs also have the effect of changing the space.
Release of New Series “A+”
Asahikawa furniture maker Mobel Toko and CondeHouse have newly developed “A+” by making the best use of each other’s system furniture achievements and Know-How. We have prepared a “plan” that is configure for each scene such as living room, kitchen and study, so that customers can choose a combination of sizes that suits their purpose and space from the abundant variations.
The plan is a wide lineup including single TV boards, shelves, desks and wall storage. It’s a clear system that the price can be calculated by selecting the tree species and color from a number of plans. Not only is it easy for customers to consider, but it is also a great advantage of shortening the lead time. Of course, customization of sizes and combinations that are not included in the plan is available. It’s a new series featuring the wood texture and the beauty of handicrafts that are typical of Asahikawa furniture. There are three basic tree species: Oak, Hokkaido Ash and Walnut. Any color basing on the standard color of CondeHouse is available for painting.
More space has been created by the A+, along with the Lifestyle proposals basing on “18 scenes” focusing on dining and living rooms, which has been in operation since May 2021.
Six types of plans will be unveiled at the Asahikawa shop from Wednesday, June 16th. Release is scheduled for September.
