Description

A Botanical Sculpture in Functional Form

Soshun is a poetic embodiment of nature’s elegance, interpreted through the lens of contemporary Italian design. Part of Edra’s iconic Flower Collection, this sculptural chair captures the fleeting grace of a springtime bloom. Its silhouette recalls the organic delicacy of a flower at full tilt—the stem angled gracefully to support a petal-like seat. Every curve and contour pays tribute to biomorphic inspiration, transforming a chair into a living art form that breathes softness and symbolism into its surroundings.

Sculpted Comfort and Velvet Sophistication

At its crown, Soshun features a welcoming seat—gently padded with high-resilience polyurethane foam and enveloped in luxurious velvet. This tactile choice of material adds a layer of sensuality and richness to the design, inviting touch and admiration. The velvet, available in refined hues, enhances the chair’s fluid shape and reflects light in subtle, ever-changing gradients, giving the piece an ethereal presence that shifts throughout the day. Available in two heights, Soshun adapts elegantly to a variety of spatial compositions and furnishing needs.

A Statement of Artistic Luxury

Soshun is more than a seating solution—it is a curated design object ideal for sophisticated lounges, gallery-inspired living spaces, or contemplative corners. Whether placed beside a sculptural coffee table, beneath ambient lighting, or standing alone as a decorative punctuation in a dressing suite, Soshun exemplifies the timeless synergy between artistic imagination and masterful craftsmanship that defines all Edra creations. Its base structure is composed of steel tubing with a refined metallic gray finish, providing visual contrast and architectural stability to the chair’s organic upper form.

About The Artist

EDRA

Edra Italy was founded in 1987 by Valerio and Monica Mazzei, who transformed their family’s furniture legacy into a bold vision of contemporary design. Alongside the brand’s first art director, Massimo Morozzi, Valerio Mazzei shaped Edra into a leader in design innovation, known for fusing impeccable technical mastery with expressive form. Emerging from the heart of Tuscany, the brand has redefined modern luxury furniture worldwide.

It is within this creative lineage that Soshun came to life. Designed by Masanori Umeda—one of the most poetic voices in postmodern design—Soshun draws inspiration from the Japanese term for “early spring.” Umeda, known for his iconic Memphis-era works like the Tawaraya boxing ring, has long celebrated the blending of East and West, emotion and geometry. His reverence for natural transition is beautifully captured in the organic tilt and bloom-like form of Soshun.

Elegantly crafted, Soshun is not only a chair, but a moment frozen in bloom. Its padded velvet seat and petal-inspired lines invite the body gently while engaging the eye profoundly. As always, Edra turns furniture into design theatre—where craftsmanship and symbolism bloom in sculptural harmony.

As a brand, Edra embodies the spirit of Italian excellence and bold creative exploration. Guided by the philosophy that furniture should be both functional and poetic, the maison is renowned for its seamless fusion of tradition and innovation. With Soshun, the brand reveals its signature language of visionary elegance—transforming natural inspiration into timeless artistry and elevating seating to a form of sculptural expression.

Style Guide

The Soshun Chair is a sculptural ode to spring—soft, refined, and full of organic elegance. A crown jewel in Edra’s Flower Collection, it invites poetic interpretation and tactile pleasure. Its tilted stem-like base and padded velvet seat make it as functional as it is artistic—perfect for interiors that appreciate meaningful design. This style guide presents a curatorial narrative for those who seek to elevate their spaces with emotive design, where collectible seating like the Soshun chair anchors an environment of poetic sophistication and tactile storytelling.

Ideal Placement:

  • Contemporary Lounges: Use the chair as a sculptural anchor beside a modular or curved sofa, allowing its organic form and delicate curvature to contrast and soften the space’s architectural geometry.
  • Dressing Areas or Boudoirs: Position the chair beside a refined vanity or in an open couture suite, where its sensual silhouette adds both visual poetry and function to luxury personal rituals.
  • Art Gallery-Style Rooms: Place the chair beneath a focused spotlight to elevate it as a collectible objet d’art— highlighting its artistic craftsmanship while suggesting seating potential in curated, contemplative interiors.
  • Intimate Reading Corners: Nestle the piece near a soft floor lamp with a minimal side table to form a quiet corner where design, comfort, and solitude merge into a sanctuary of style.
  • Boutique Hotel Suites: Situate the chair in a suite’s corner where natural light or mood lighting can caress its velvet surface, inviting luxurious stillness and storytelling within a refined retreat.

Styling Tips:

  • Material Contrast: Balance the chair’s plush velvet with tactile opposites like rough stone, smooth concrete, or matte metals to create an elevated textural dialogue grounded in design sophistication.
  • Tonal Cohesion: Complement its palette with earthy, muted tones—dusty rose, sage green, mineral grey—that deepen its elegance and evoke a serene, seasonally inspired chromatic harmony.
  • Layered Lighting: Use layered ambient lighting to cast gentle shadows across the chair’s contours, revealing the play of form and texture for an enriched visual and spatial experience.
  • Botanical Accessories: Introduce florals like ikebana stems or ceramic vessels that echo the chair’s organic narrative, enhancing the story of cultivated nature meeting artistic craftsmanship.
  • Spatial Clarity: Prioritize negative space around the chair, allowing its sculptural form to command attention within a minimally adorned room that feels curated, intentional, and visually breathable.

From Our Designers

A Curated Styling Tip for Special Effect

To complement the botanical elegance of the Soshun Chair, pair it with the Blur Coffee Table, a sculptural centerpiece that embodies quiet sophistication and modern artistry. The Blur table’s soft contours, tonal gradient finish, and minimal visual weight harmonize seamlessly with Soshun’s petal-inspired silhouette—creating a pairing that feels both grounded and ethereal.
