English	“TOMARIGI” is a rack-like furniture piece that provides a breathe for your body and soul during the day, like a bird rest its wings. It is a piece of furniture in between standing and sitting that brings a gentle and sophisticated comfort to every aspect of your daily life. Whether you’re cooking, enjoying the scent of a coffee, or brushing your teeth, it creates a comfortable space according to your lifestyle. It’s a healing spot away from the daily hustle that provides a sense of tranquility just by its presence. Its innovative design blends in our daily lives making it more meaningful.
Native	「トマリギ」は、小鳥が広がる景色を眺めるように、暮らしの中のふとした瞬間にこころとからだを休めることができる「止まり木」が由来です。 立つでも座るでもない中間域の家具であり、暮らしのあらゆる場面で心地よさをもたらします。 キッチンで料理をしているときや、コーヒーの香りが漂う時間。歯磨きをしている最中。友人が訪れたときにも、トマリギがあることで新しい居場所をつくることができます。それぞれのライフスタイルや暮らしの場面に合わせて、心地のよい場所をつくりだします。日常の喧騒から離れ、ただそこにいるだけでこころが和む、そんな豊かな時間と空間を提供できる家具であり、私たちの暮らしに溶け込むデザインです。
