Introducing Nawabari
A BoConcept + BIG collaboration
With a shared Danish design tradition and ambition to democratise great design, BoConcept has partnered with global architects BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group - to launch its exclusive “Nawabari” Collection.
The collection design, led by Partner and Head of BIG Products Jakob Lange, is inspired by an ancient Japanese art form of binding with ropes to forge close bonds. Nawa means rope in Japanese and the term “Nawabari” traditionally translates as stretching rope.
“When starting out with this collection we were looking for a new way of expressing furniture”, says Lange. “We were interested in the forms that are created when a material is bound with rope. The result is these sculptural organic shapes that become the core of this furniture family.”
Transforming social spaces
BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group - is a Copenhagen, New York, London, Barcelona, Shenzhen and Los Angeles-based group of architects, designers, urbanists, landscape professionals, interior and product designers, researchers, and inventors. Led by Ingels, BIG has changed the face of architecture on a global scale – transforming the shape of what is possible.
The collection can be customised to meet the specific needs of each individual project. Discover our toolkit for interior designers and architects containing the full product overview, fabric selection, sustainability credentials, 3D files, and more, to start planning your Nawabari project now.
The art of connection
These statement seating forms create physical spaces to bring people together and make new connections. Exploring the intersection between work, life and play, these contemporary pieces are equally as showstopping in a hotel lobby and gallery as they are in a residential space or open plan office.
