Hannan長椅
1984年，1986年製造
PRESENTER:
Looking at this colourful, vibrant chair for the first time, you might think it something from a fairy-tale. With its multi-layered, patterned cushions and striking framework perhaps it reminds you of the story of ‘The Princess and the Pea’. Would it even be comfortable to sit on such an extravagant piece of furniture?
It’s the creation of Japanese designer Ohashi Teruaki, from the mid-1980s. Little known outside of Japanese architectural circles, Ohashi trained as an architect himself, before moving into furniture design. Across his short life, he never mass-produced pieces commercially, choosing instead to work directly with architects, making bespoke items for specific houses or spaces.
This piece, ‘Hannan Chair’, was made for a house by renowned architect Hasegawa Itsuko, who shared her thoughts on the piece, and Ohashi’s practice, with us.
ACTOR VOICE: HASEGAWA ITSUKO:
When I joined the Shinohara Kazuo architecture research group, which Mr Ohashi had just left, I had the chance to see some of his architectural blueprints. Drawn with very thin and pale pencil, those beautiful drawings impressed me very much. We started to chat a lot about furniture and houses, and sometimes I asked him to design the furniture for the small houses that I designed.
In 1984, when I completed my ‘NC House’, I came up with this idea of creating an interior with the furniture designed by Mr Ohashi. Because it was a simple room with a bare concrete wall, I placed the Hannan chair to bring brightness and casualness. I didn’t expect it to be comfortable to sit on or relax in; I thought that the function of Mr Ohashi’s furniture was more to bring a strong energy, informality, and sensual feeling to the space.
Mr Ohashi was a very quiet man. Those days, he was completely dedicated to his passion for thinking about furniture. Around the time of this piece, he really surprised us by starting to create these somewhat playful designs—that he himself called ‘game pieces’—we couldn’t believe they came from such a serious man!
PRESENTER:
Furniture as ‘game pieces’—it’s an intriguing concept, isn’t it? If you had to play your move with this chair, where would you put it…?
