Star Wars Line by Kenneth Cobonpue
Filipino designer Kenneth Cobonpue has joined forces with Disney to create the first furniture collection honoring the Star Wars universe. Combining traditional Filipino weaving techniques with out-of-this-world designs, the Star Wars Line includes three armchairs, a rocking stool, and a hanging lamp.
Launched on October 10 at the Manila showroom, the Star Wars Line includes the imposing Vader Easy Armchair, the mysterious Sidious Easy Armchair, the iconic Imperial Wings Easy Armchair, and the playful Chewie Rocking Stool.
Vader features meticulous stitching and an integrated foldable swivel table in order to embody Darth Vader’s powerful persona. Sidious recalls “the Sith Lord’s powerful and formidable presence” with its hood-like backrest.
And Chewie interprets Chewbacca’s hirsute Wookiee character in a whimsical rocker that’s sure to please young and old alike.
Of course, it’s the Imperial Wings Easy Armchair that’s “the unforgettable symbol of the Imperial fleet” and the star of the Star Wars Line. Made of handwoven polyethylene, Imperial Wings comes in black or gray. Its hexagonal sides are imposing. They also cocoon seaters in a private world where they can dream of a faraway universe.
