KUMIKI collection is HBA’s second design collaboration for Giorgetti. What began in 2024 with the HIKARI collection has grown into an evolving design conversation, now deepened with the launch of the KUMIKI in 2026. Each collection adds to a shared design language rather than standing alone, blending Italian savoir-faire and a cosmopolitan sensibility through a shared belief in craft, restraint, and the emotional power of materials.
Named after a Japanese woodworking technique that interlocks wood pieces without nails, screws or glue, the Canaletto walnut frame seats of the KUMIKI chair and armchair showcase the beauty of perfectly executed joinery.
Designed to transcend trends, KUMIKI integrates seamlessly into both residential and hospitality environments, offering a timeless presence shaped by restraint, purpose, and effortless lightness.

“The Kumiki chairs celebrate an honest approach to construction, expressed through exposed timber joints crafted using ancient, traditional methods that have been refined over centuries.
Each connection is purposeful and visible, allowing the integrity of the craftsmanship to become part of the design narrative rather than something concealed.”
— Kevin Shek, Lead Product Designer, HBA Product
