Uchiwa Ottoman is designed by Doshi Levien for HAY as the companion footrest piece to the Uchiwa Lounge Chair — a compact ottoman that shares the Uchiwa's circular formal language and upholstery character, extending the chair's seated comfort and completing the lounge seating arrangement with a formally coherent and visually consistent footrest companion. The ottoman's circular form coordinates directly with the Uchiwa Lounge Chair, and the consistency of form and material between the two pieces creates a complete lounge seating unit of considered visual and functional integrity.
The ottoman's compact scale makes it easy to position alongside the Uchiwa Lounge Chair in residential and hospitality settings, and its circular form gives it an independence of visual identity as a standalone low accent piece within the arrangement even when not in use as a footrest. The upholstery options coordinate with the Uchiwa Chair's available covers, allowing the ottoman to be specified as a precisely matched companion set with the lounge chair or in a deliberate and considered colour or material contrast within the same overall circular formal language. Available in HAY's upholstery range consistent with the Uchiwa collection, allowing flexible specification across different interior colour and material directions.
The Uchiwa Ottoman is well suited to residential living rooms and hospitality lounge settings where a compact, formally coherent footrest for the Uchiwa Lounge Chair is required. Its circular form and shared design language with the Uchiwa Chair make it the natural and formally appropriate companion specification, and the ottoman's upholstery options allow it to be specified in precisely coordinated or thoughtfully contrasted combinations within the complete Uchiwa seating arrangement.
Available as a 2D DWG drawing and 3D model.
