Rocking chair 509 in Studio Kukkapuro

The Rocking Chair A509 embodies Yrjö Kukkapuro’s innovative approach to immersive furniture design, offering a fresh perspective on a centuries-old form.

Constructed with a tubular steel frame, the chair harmoniously balances stability and lightness. The padded seat and backrest, upholstered in leather or fabric, ensure ergonomic comfort, while the curved wooden rockers provide a contrast to the geometric frame. Visible connections and a clean structure reflect Kukkapuro’s signature emphasis on transparency in design, allowing the construction itself to become an integral part of the aesthetic.

The Rocking Chair reinterprets a classic form with a contemporary shape and carefully refined proportions. The wave-like curves of the rockers show Kukkapuro’s ability to merge sculptural elegance with functional purpose, resulting in a design that is both visually compelling and intuitively comfortable.
