KOYORI ANECDOTES: THE BEGINNING
The KOYORI launch project started in 2019, one year before the pandemic began. The unprecedented outbreak of the pandemic was completely unexpected, and we couldn’t help but being concerned about what would happen next. However, on the contrary, the pandemic has fortunately made our preparation period easy to sail through.
Despite to the situation that made us impossible to travel, the designers and KOYORI team managed to shift the minds and adjust to online meetings, and overall, it has become a smooth process.

There were some factors that couldn’t have determined without visiting the factories. Therefore, we recorded videos of the factories and showed them to the designers, explaining them in detail about the facilities, manufacturers’ specialized technologies, and types of jigs used.
As a result of all these, we could bring forth those wonderful products.
The designers recall their moments as below:
“I think, in a certain way, the situation forced us to fully concentrate on what we were doing. ... Undoubtedly, this situation has forced us to be efficient. We had to be simple and clear in our approach but at the same time without being too banal. Each chair is unique and has a very good reason to exist,” says Ronan Bouroullec.
“The experience and passion have undoubtedly helped us to work remotely, and the collaboration has been very smooth,” says GamFratesi.
