HAY Uchiwa Lounge Chair & Ottoman
Uchiwa is a capacious armchair, taking its soft and open shape from the traditional Japanese hand fan. Generous and inviting, new and familiar at the same time, the armchair comes in two upholstered versions: in a softer quilted model for a more domestic environment and in moulded foam for a more demanding contract context. The base is available in natural or stained oak.

Doshi and Levien
Doshi Levien is a London based design studio founded in 2000 by Nipa
Doshi (b. 1971) and Jonathan Levien (b. 1972). Doshi grew up in India
and studied at the National Institute of Design, while Jonathan, who is
from Scotland, trained in fine cabinet making followed by industrial
design. They met while studying at the Royal College of Art. They have
established a strong reputation for creating design that is both
technically advanced and imbued with cultural resonance. They have been
internationally acclaimed for their work and in 2008 were awarded the
prestigious Future Legends of Design by the Cooper Hewitt National
Museum of Design in New York. Together, they bring to bear a
complimentary set of skills to the projects they work on. Doshi is
primarily concerned with visual culture, an aesthetic understanding of
the world and the materiality of things, while Levien is more focused on
industrial precision and technique. They have worked on projects for
industry leading companies and institutions in the fields of furniture,
fashion, homewares, technology and lighting. For HAY, they have created
the Uchiwa Lounge Chair.
