Tokujin Yoshioka apprenticed to both Shiro Kuramata and Issey Miyake before he started designing his own line of furniture for Driade.

"Designed by tokujin yoskioka, 2005 for driade. Yoshioka is an award-winning designer whose thoughts about design are that the creator should show something surprising and joyful. his work may look understated but there is a deeper meaning of something that is both poetic and ready-to-sell. The Boing sofa is simple yet interesting. the three place sofa's structure is made in chromed steel , the shell and foam with metal inserts and the fixed cover is made of leather in ivory, red, or blue."
