Paris, April 3, 2025 – Palais de Tokyo — Reishi™, the pioneering biomaterial developed by MycoWorks, has taken a bold step into the world of luxury interior design. At the Onirium event held at Palais de Tokyo, Ligne Roset unveiled the Kobold sofa designed by Erwan Bouroullec—marking the first industrial-scale integration of Reishi™ into high-end furniture.
This collaboration is more than just a design milestone. It confirms that Reishi™ is not a material of the future—it is an industrialized, scalable solution ready for real-world applications in premium design.
Reishi™: A New Standard in Sustainable Materials
Developed using MycoWorks’ patented Fine Mycelium™ technology, Reishi™ offers the perfect combination of performance, durability, and aesthetics—and is available at an industrial scale. Designed to meet the high standards of global furniture manufacturers, Reishi™ is redefining what’s possible in sustainable interior design.
Why Reishi™ Stands Out:
- Exceptional Performance: Strong, elastic, and highly durable—ideal for everyday use.
- Natural Beauty: Each sheet is unique, featuring organic patterns and veining similar to marble or leather.
- Eco-Friendly & Scalable: No animal products or synthetic materials—Reishi™ is fully sustainable and commercially viable at scale.
- Aging Gracefully: Like other natural materials, Reishi™ develops a rich patina over time, adding to its appeal.
“The integration of Reishi™ into the Ligne Roset collection proves that sustainable luxury isn’t just possible—it’s happening now,” said Sophia Wang, Co-Founder of MycoWorks.
The Kobold Sofa: A Testament to Innovation
Now available in France and globally through the Ligne Roset 2025 catalogue, the Kobold sofa demonstrates how Reishi™ can seamlessly align with world-class craftsmanship and modern sustainability standards.
Designed by Erwan Bouroullec, the Kobold is a modular, multi-functional seating solution that combines form, comfort, and functionality—enhanced by the use of Reishi™.
“We’ve waited years for a natural, sustainable material that meets our quality expectations,” said Antoine Roset, Managing Director of Ligne Roset. “Reishi™ offers us the opportunity to uphold our legacy of Made in France design while embracing innovation.”
As part of the Onirium showcase, the Reishi™ Kobold sofa was surrounded by lush greenery, symbolizing the harmony between nature and design—and inviting the design community to embrace the future of sustainable materials.
