Like Visiting the Home of a Distinctive Friend
Arflex has led Japanese modern lifestyles with furniture rich in Italian design. Valuing usability and comfort, its furniture, where function and design harmonize, teaches the joy and depth of interior design while staying close to the Japanese way of living.
The "Futako-Tamagawa Rise S.C. Terrace Market," centered around Tsutaya Electronics, naturally arranges books, art, and greenery as if in a living space. In this location, which is enjoyable just to explore, Arflex Tamagawa, with its natural light, displays books focused on various scenes depicted with interiors and the personalities of those who live there, allowing visitors to concretely imagine a life with Arflex furniture in a calm atmosphere.
Functioning as an Antenna Shop for the Jōnan Area
Arflex offers a wide range of items, from sofas and chairs to tables and storage, with many sofa products including a 10-year warranty. They have established a system to ensure purchased furniture can be used for a long time, offering extensive maintenance programs for each product.
An Arflex representative highlights, "The three-seater arm sofa 'A・SOFA 10' and 'MARENCO' are long-selling products, and many customers in the Setagaya area, where Futako-Tamagawa is located, have been using them for a long time. At Arflex Tamagawa, you can also feel free to consult us about maintenance."
Furthermore, the chair series "NT" will be changed from June this year to the same "glossy leather" as when it was first released in 1977. Maintenance services such as re-tightening the leather after long-term use are also available, suggesting that Arflex Tamagawa also serves as an antenna shop for the surrounding area.
Envisioning an Ideal Home with a Focus on Quality
Arflex Tamagawa also offers attractive items such as richly textured dining tables from the solid wood furniture brand "Riva1920," imported directly from Italy; products from the highly livable outdoor furniture brand "Paola Lenti"; and the Italian top brand "Molteni & C." Envision your ideal home with a focus on quality.
