A clever guest chair design that supports seated movement

Leeway Chair

Leeway was designer Keiji Takeuchi's first furniture design for a US-based company. He drew upon our strength in woodcraft to create a crescent-shaped, cantilevered backrest. This opens up the chair to better accommodate the side-to-side movements people make while socializing or collaborating.

Design Story

Keiji Takeuchi wanted to free people from the constraints of conventional guest chairs. “My work was not done until people were happy to sit,” he says. “If people have any hesitation choosing my chair...that means something is missing.”

Crescent-shaped backrest

The crescent-shaped backrest curves forward enough to allow the sitter to rest their elbows.

Cantilevered design

Leeway's cantilevered design means the backrest only connects to the frame at two points, which opens up the design along the sides.

Two Leeway Chairs designed by Keiji Takeuchi, one in Walnut with an upholstered seat front-facing, one in black polyurethane a black metal frame shown at an angle, on a white sweep.

Material options

Leeway comes in all-wood, or with metal frames and a choice of wood or polyurethane seats and backrests. Wood seats can also be upholstered.
