Barber Osgerby is a well-known and distinguished name in the furniture design space. The designer duo – Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby – based in London has come up with their latest work in collaboration with Vitra. The Mikado chair is the name given to an elegant piece of furniture that impresses with its subtle form and structure.
The Mikado chair has a welcoming design elevating the beauty of any residential or commercial space. It can be used in different settings and environments. The chair scores well on sustainability parameters as well. The covers are not glued so they can be easily removed and replaced. This also contributes to the long lifespan of the chair.
High recycled aluminum has been used for the inner seat panels adding to its lightweight and durability. Moreover, recycled post-consumer polypropylene has been employed as backrest shells. The Mikado is available both as an armchair and side chair and offers great options for customization.
One of the remarkable features of the Mikado chair is its backward-tilt action which is possible due to the mechanism hidden beneath the seat. This function allows a user to interchange anytime between positions designed for relaxation and an engaging posture. This is truly an outstanding design aspect that makes the Mikado chair one-of-a-kind.

The seat and backrest of the Mikado armchair seem comfortable and snug as it hugs your upper body. The design of the legs is also interesting as they are sleek and protrude out toward the base. Likewise, the design of the Mikado side chair creates a great seating experience for the user.
There are various color options of upholstery for the Mikado chairs so users can match the chairs with the interiors or other furniture. Or they can create a contrast by using a striking color variant.
