CHAIRMAN (ORO EDITIONS) (HB)

Chairman is the first comprehensive book from multi-disciplinary artist and designer Yinka Ilori, tracing his celebrated chairs and the vibrant design language shaped by his British-Nigerian heritage. Bringing together over a decade of work, the book explores how Ilori transforms discarded and overlooked furniture into powerful vessels of memory, migration and joy. Through newly commissioned photography, archival material and in-depth studio insights, Chairman reveals the processes behind Ilori’s distinctive aesthetic, from material sourcing and restoration to surface intervention and conceptual development.
