Shuichiro Koizumi is a young Japanese designer brought to our attention by one of our top dealers in Tokyo. He was actually an employee of the retailer, and the owner was so taken by his design for the Zumi Stool, that he asked us to develop it. We loved it too, and recognized how awesome it would be in Plywood.

The Zumi Stool has been a big hit in Shuichiro's home town - Tokyo, and arguably an excellent piece here in the U.S. with features in the Museum of Modern Art Catalog, and 50 independent design shops across the nation.
