A high-end designer armchair, custom-made in France.
The artwork “Passage” by NEP. The MW05 received first prize at the DNA Paris Design Awards 2023. The collaboration with the artist NEP and the integration of his artwork onto the panels of this armchair and sofa bring a unique and exclusive touch to your interior. This model is both a comfortable armchair, a piece of art and a true collector’s item. Signed and numbered, it is limited to only twenty pieces. Upon request, the seat width can be adapted to 150 cm.
NEP is a French painter with a national exhibition. His creative work is an endless inner journey where he unconsciously conveys his dreams and anxieties in each composition. This artist from Touraine works spontaneously and does not question his subject. He gives free rein to his sensations. This is what drives him and what you will find in each of his furniture creations for KUUMO Design.
In 2023, he collaborated with KUUMO Design for the first time. His creations are expressed through two designer furniture models integrated into the KUUMO Design range: a sofa and an armchair, MW05 and MW02.
With KUUMO Design, NEP dedicates two of his works, balancing between luxury and design.
The KUUMO Design collection offers exceptional pieces with sculptural lines and high-end materials. Designed to provide a customizable seating experience, it includes the MW01, MW02, MW03, MW04, MW05 models, the Kuumo range, as well as matching coffee tables.
The seats are filled with high-resilience foam and covered with interchangeable covers, available in 3D Runner fabric or vegan leather Soshagro, each offered in a variety of colors.
KUUMO Design armchairs and sofas feature tempered glass or PMMA Altuglass panels, available in multiple shades:
- Tempered glass: only in transparent.
- Laminated glass (with a colored film): bronze, smoked gray, green, yellow, blue, and more.
- PMMA Altuglass: transparent, bronze, gray-blue.
Suitable for indoor use in glass or PMMA Altuglas, KUUMO Design models in PMMA Altuglas are also designed for outdoor use.
Each model in the KUUMO Design collection is a unique piece, blending transparency and material contrasts for an elegant and timeless look. With an extensive range of color and finish customizations, these creations seamlessly adapt to modern interiors as well as high-end and HORECA design projects.

Foam seat:
MW models with HR foam seats are specifically designed for indoor use. The independent cushions and removable covers provide full customization, easy maintenance and excellent long-term durability.
5-year warranty, ensuring the furniture’s long-lasting durability.
Our armchairs and sofas come with a 5-year warranty, but their actual durability goes far beyond that.
Our ambition is to offer furniture that is timeless, repairable and long-lasting, designed to remain elegant and functional for decades.
MW seating with foam cushions offers flexible arrangement options for both outdoor and indoor use, depending on the fabric chosen for the cushion covers.
We use HR 30 and HR 40 foam for furniture intended for indoor use.
For outdoor furniture, we use open-cell foam, which has the advantage of not retaining water during rain, allowing the seating to dry quickly. Each cushion, designed as an independent element, enables extensive customization.
To ensure maximum durability and a consistently perfect appearance at a moderate cost, our cushions are equipped with removable covers. This feature makes maintenance significantly easier and allows you to refresh or modify the look of your seating simply by changing the cover, according to your preferences or needs, while maintaining the excellence and comfort of your furniture.
