Arguably one of Kenneth Cobonpue’s most iconic and whimsical creations, the Yoda Easy Chair is a masterclass in organic design. It brilliantly pairs industrial strength with a raw, wild aesthetic that feels alive. Inspired by the natural flexibility of tall grass swaying in the wind, the Yoda Easy Chair features a high backrest made of extended tips that rise up to frame whoever sits in it like a modern throne. The standout feature is the backrest. The material is woven tension-tight over the seat, but then erupts past the upper frame into loose, free-ended strands. This gives the chair a distinct, untamed personality. Built by weaving split rattan or high-performance polyethylene fibers over a mild steel frame. The material choice offers a surprising amount of natural spring, leaning back slightly with your weight for an incredibly comfortable sit. Striking from every angle, its towering height makes it an immediate vocal point for high-ceiling living rooms, chic hotel lobbies, or covered luxury terraces.

General Information
After spending years abroad, Kenneth Cobonpue returned to Cebu, Philippines, in 1996 to take over his mother Betty's furniture design and manufacturing company. Betty, who is a designer and a Pratt graduate, founded the company. Kenneth realized that modern design could be reinvented using natural fibers and materials. He began creating the pieces that now make up the collection by blending locally sourced organic materials with innovative handmade production techniques. This offered an alternative to the Western definition of modern design. He pays tribute to the talent of craftsmen, which forms the basis of the designs produced by KENNETH COBONPUE today. The company produces high-end indoor and outdoor furniture and furnishings known for their artistic imprint and unique visual impact. All creations skillfully integrate nature, traditional craftsmanship, and innovative technologies.
