The centuries-old tradition of rattan craftsmanship meets contemporary design in the creation of the Lukis armchair, envisioned by Indonesian designer Abie Abdillah; his ground-breaking interpretation of these artisanal techniques from South-East Asia is aimed at fostering greater environmental awareness and sustainability: in fact, rattan is fast-growing, the whole plant is utilizable, and it can be easily moulded with hot steam.‎
For the Lukis, rattan is used to form the distinctive seat and backrest, whereas the frame of the armchair is made of rubber wood, from the tree that yields rubber.‎ The result of this blending of elements is a hand-woven indoor design element characterized by a precise and regular pattern: the cleanliness and accuracy of the pattern and details are a testament to the design, as they might lead one to believe the product was made by sophisticated high-tech machinery.‎
The seat of the Lukis armchairs is available in a natural finish and the legs can be stained in matte blue or matte black.‎ A chair version is also available; for both the chair and armchair, the seat cushion has a fixed cover.‎
