Dodo Chair
for Cassina
The versatile Dodo lounge chair, designed by Toshiyuki Kita, converts from a reading chair to a chaise lounge, conveniently catering to the contemporary needs of the home office and home theater. Thanks to its generous padding, the Dodo lounge with a footrest conforms to the body’s shape, and it gets even better by adding fabric covers for a deeper sense of comfort. It reclines to nearly horizontal and is customizable with non-removable upholstery in leather or fabric and fabric over covers.
