Plimode executive chair for all-day comfort

Plimode is like a custom-tailored suit made by a master craftsperson-attention goes into every stitch, every detail, every fit, and every finish.
Not only does it fit as comfortably as bespoke tailored suiting, the cloth on the backrest and seat have been painstakingly applied to ensure there are no gaps, divides, or creases. It is a work of engineered office comfort 70 years in the making with every bit of the craftsmanship and design the house of Okamura has to offer. Every bit of technology at our disposal has gone into the design and comfort of plimode. Our advanced resin molding techniques have produced armrests with a modern, streamlined curve. The reclining mechanism has been simplified into a clean, modern, minimalist design. Under the seat, you’ll find a compact control cluster. Technology and ingenuity woven together in unprecedented quality.

Beauty and Comfort in Equal Measure

Plimode chair design with balanced proportions and elegance

Inspired by bespoke tailored suiting, plimode is a rare weave of elegance and fitted comfort. The cloth on the back rest and seat has been painstakingly applied to ensure there are no gaps, divides, or creases.

Attention to every stitch, every detail, every fit, and every finish. With vast, yet refined fabric and color offerings, plimode is made to fit its space.

The three-dimensional curve results in a soft contour that forms to your body ━ the product of years of reseach and expertise.

Every bit of technology at our disposal has gone into the design and comfort of plimode. The inner mesh structure makes the back rest almost impossibly slim. Our advanced resin molding techniques have produced arm rests with a modern, streamlined curve. Under the seat, you’ll find a compact control cluster. Engineering and ingenuity woven together in unprecedented quality.

Function
