The Kiko Armchair, designed by Sérgio Rodrigues in 1964, is a key example of Brazilian mid-century furniture that blends modernism with national identity. Rodrigues, a pioneering designer and founder of the influential Oca furniture company, emphasized traditional Brazilian materials like leather, wood, and rattan to create pieces reflecting his cultural roots and suited to the tropical climate. Originally created to furnish the Palácio dos Arcos in Brasília, this armchair balances comfort and elegance, embodying Rodrigues’ distinctive approach to design.
