Japanese cuisine demonstration room,
Shinjuku Chourishi Senmon Gakkou

Kotobuki Seating's product provides an optimal learning environment.

Before the renovation, long desks with chairs were used in this room.
The most extended desk has nine chairs, making it difficult to get through to the middle seats when aisle seats are occupied.
Kotobuki's new chair having only one leg solved this problem.
This chair was designed for a ‘lecture theater’ and was installed in a tiered-style classroom giving a good view to the students while a professor demonstrates cooking.  

The one-legged chair can be installed quickly and is applicable on various layouts, compared to an ordinary two-legged chair.
The simple design provides room around the user's foot, allowing users to place their feet to their comfort as they sit.

Desks are not installed in the new room because the new chairs have an integrated retractable writing tablet.
This A3 size writing tablet gives writing stability sufficiently.
It can be stowed in the armrest when not in use, allowing students to concentrate on the lecture instead of taking notes.
 
The seats' original mechanism suits tight spaces. The seat moves according to the person's motion leading to another level of comfort. The seat moves against the backrest, so the person sitting can easily stand up and make room for anyone passing through, maximizing the space.

Seat comfortability has significantly improved by using a cushion on the seat and backrest and upholstering it with a very soft synthetic leather.
We use a maintenance-friendly vinyl fabric, easy to clean from dirt or stains should there be food spills during food tastings.
The back panel's fine shape provides lumbar support, and the natural wood used on the back panel adds coziness and a welcoming atmosphere together with the interior decoration.
