Osso

Innovative Chair Design Recognized for Exceptional Craftsmanship and Architectural Inspiration

COMO, CO, ITALY, July 25, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The A' Design Awards, one of the world's most respected and well-recognized design competitions, has announced Osso by Wongsun Yoo as a Silver winner in the Furniture Design category. This prestigious recognition highlights the significance of Osso's innovative design within the furniture industry, celebrating its outstanding craftsmanship and architectural inspiration.

Osso's award-winning design showcases the relevance of traditional techniques and contemporary aesthetics in modern furniture design. By seamlessly blending architectural principles with ergonomic considerations, Osso addresses the current demand for furniture that combines visual appeal with functional comfort, making it a highly relevant addition to the industry.

The chair's striking silhouette captivates attention, featuring curved beams, bent seats, and a circular backrest that layers up like a spine. The design follows architectural principles for strength and rhythm, reminiscent of traditional Oriental architecture. Osso's joineries, while seemingly effortless, are meticulously crafted through a collaboration between Wongsun Yoo and seasoned French cabinetmakers Brimbois, elevating the design by applying century-old techniques to contemporary pieces.

This recognition from the A' Furniture Design Awards serves as a testament to Wongsun Yoo's dedication to pushing the boundaries of furniture design. The success of Osso is expected to inspire future projects that explore the intersection of architecture, craftsmanship, and ergonomics, fostering further innovation within the brand and the industry as a whole.

Osso was designed by Wongsun Yoo, a French & Korean architectural designer graduated with the "Felicitations du jury" (highest honours) of the Ecole Nationale Superieure d'Architecture de Paris Malaquais. Yoo has practiced architecture within several renowned offices such as Foster+Partners, Moreau Kusunoki, and Ishigami Junya.
