Doshi Levien and Naoto Fukasawa design furniture for B&B Italia's 50th anniversary

Milan 2016: Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa has created a sheepskin armchair and London studio Doshi Levien has produced footstools shaped like "marine creatures" for furniture brand B&B Italia 's 50th anniversary collection

Naoto Fukasawa's wooly armchair is a special

 edition of his 2009 Grande Papilio armchair

Showcased at the Salone del Mobile furniture fair in Milan earlier this month, B&B Italia 's latest range included a set of limited-edition pieces to celebrate its birthday.

The Japanese designer also created the Papillo Shell chairs,

 which come as plastic shell or upholstered versions, 

and rest on four-spoke bases

Fukasawa 's wooly chair is a special edition of his 2009 Grande Papilio armchair, and features a tall winged back and an accompanying footstool. The furniture will be available in only 50 numbered versions.

Doshi Levien also designed a trio of foot stools in oval, 

square and triangular shapes for B&B Italia's anniversary

The Japanese designer has also created a set of new chairs, which come as plastic shell or upholstered versions, and rest on four-spoke bases. The Papilio Shell seating features aluminium armrests, and a winged-back design echoes the form of the Grande Papilio armchair.
