Driade Suki Armchair
As a master in architecture, the Japanese Ito has proposed few but extraordinary design works. Suki armchair, designed in 1988, is one of them: an object made mysterious by the use of a double steel mesh row intersected by many springs. This is an ideological “manifesto” but, unpredictably comfortable.

Toyo Ito
Japan, 1941
Toyo Ito is a Japanese architect known for creating conceptual architecture, in which he seeks to simultaneously express the physical and virtual worlds. He is a leading exponent of architecture that addresses the contemporary notion of a "simulated" city, and has been called "one of the world's most innovative and influential architects.
In 2013, Ito was awarded the Pritzker Prize, one of architecture's most prestigious prizes. He was a likely front-runner for the Pritzker Prize for the previous 10 years. A recent trend has seen less experienced and well-known winners, for example Chinese architect Wang Shu in 2012, and the award to Toyo Ito is seen as recognition of a lifetime's achievement in architecture.
