Award-winning Filipino designer Kenneth Cobonpue is world-renowned for defying Western design boundaries by blending high-tech manufacturing with organic materials and traditional handweaving techniques. The Russell Easy chair is a premier example of this signature philosophy. The core theme of the Russell collection is whimsical escape. Cobonpue describes the piece through a poetic lens: "We don't need wings to fly... Sit comfortably while the clouds float by and the earth passes underneath." Constructed with a highly durable polyethylene and aluminum frame, the Russell Easy chair is engineered for both luxury indoor lounging and high-end outdoor settings. The chair's open, airy weave creates a delicate, semi-transparent backdrop that plays beautifully with light and shadow, preventing the piece from visually overwhelming smaller patios or living spaces.

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.
