MIO is defined by a quiet, composed presence that settles naturally into everyday living environments.
Inspired by the landscape of Akishima—where abundant underground water flows—the series takes its name from Mio, a word that refers to a watercourse or channel.

The softly textured surface invites touch, while the gentle, organic form echoes shapes found in nature, creating a subtle harmony between material, form, and daily life.

“What does it mean for furniture to stand quietly in a space—never interfering with daily life, yet possessing a calm, dignified presence? With this question in mind, we sought to reduce the overall volume of the product as much as possible, aiming for a soft, light, and unobtrusive design.”
— Designer, Gen Suzuki

“The flowing line from the backrest to the armrests forms an extremely complex three-dimensional curve. Taking into account the characteristics of solid wood, we refined this form through repeated millimeter-level adjustments.”
