“Ergonomics are useless if the aesthetic is wrong.”  – Simone Bonanni, designer of the Hana Chair

The Hana Family by Simone Bonanni
Hana means ‘blooming’ in Japanese, which perfectly fits the design as it unfolds like a flower in bloom. The inspiration behind the Hana family comes from the aesthetics of an unfurling flower. The design incorporates organic shapes and curves, as well as the encompassing backrest reminiscent of flower petals, which gives the chair its unique and recognisable look.

The Hana Chair, part of the Hana family that also boasts the sizeable Hana Armchair, invites you to sit down and relax in its enveloping embrace. According to designer Simone Bonanni: “Ergonomics are useless if the aesthetic is wrong” and proves with his Hana family, that you don’t have to compromise on either. The Hana chairs are more than seating objects. They’re sculptured around the human body and its need to be pampered, embraced and accommodated for long stretches of time.
