Concept
With the LAND chair, designed by Naoto Fukasawa, Plank has widens its Outdoor collection. A design distinctive for its pure lines, it seeks to balance the relation between form and character, expression and fluidity. LAND is a lounge chair made with rotational plastic mould technology. It was born to serve as an outdoor seat, but its sober and elegant design makes it suitable for indoor uses too. The low, slightly inclined seat promotes a relaxed posture with outstretched legs and supported back. At the same time, it provides the feeling of sitting in a sports car. Ideal for indoor and outdoor applications, including lounges and waiting areas.
The Land Lounge Chair is an upholstered lounge chair. The seat of the chair is made of fire-retardant cold foam and is available with a cover in fabric, imitation leather or leather.
The LAND ottoman is a plastic stool available in the colours black, white, basalt grey, signal grey, traffic red and yellow green. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor use and serves as a side table for the LAND lounge chair
Naoto Fukasawa’s newest project for PLANK has a personality of its own, conceived both to complement LAND lounge chair and to be an accessory to other furniture items.
The aim of the project consisted in creating a strong and impactful yet essential geometry while simultaneously minimizing the making process.
TO side table embodies Naoto’s design philosophy at its best with its essential demeanour.
T-shaped columns and an O-shaped top and base defined the table design. All the steel plates are 4mm in thickness, displaying a bare structure. A simple form that blends into any scene and fits multiple purposes, being unpretentious and striking at the same time.

Designing shape is to give form to values that people tacitly share and wish for. Naoto Fukasawa visually captures these values and he draws the exact outline of them. His ability for visualising such unseen outlines for things is not easily worded and described, nonetheless, people are convinced with his ability when they experience his design. Fukasawa’s notions and expressions to approach essential values of things through design travel beyond borders or domains and his thoughts are well respected internationally. His concept for finding hints in subconscious behaviour of people which he named “Without Thought”, is most known and he runs “Without Thought” workshops to share his thoughts. Fukasawa collaborates with world leading companies and brands in such countries as Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Scandinavian countries and Asian countries while consulting Japanese leading companies locally. His area of work is broad and he works with various fields in design beyond categories. Consulting works for Japanese companies are mainly focused on evaluating their cooperate strategies in line with the mean of sociality and how we define quality of life in order to direct the companies towards where society is inevitably heading. Such consulting work extends as far as to visualise design for their products which marks the company’s social responsibilities as well as to visualise their cooperate strategies and Fukasawa‘s work for consulting has led them to many successful results. Biography Fukasawa graduated from Tama Art University in 1980. After working for IDEO's San Francisco and Tokyo offices, he established Naoto Fukasawa Design in 2003 acting as a designer and a consultant for companies, both domestic and overseas. Professor of Department of Integrated Design, Tama Art University. He has been the fifth director of the Japan Folk Crafts Museum since 2012.
