From storage to scissors, egg cups to sake cups – good design is everywhere in Japan. Sori Yanagi, Riki Watanabe, and Masahiro Mori led the postwar design boom – renowned for their technical skill, application of materials, and simple design aesthetics. They created iconic household objects for everyone’s – everyday use.
Recorded live at MPavilion 10 by Tadao Ando in partnership with the Robin Boyd Foundation, this talk is hosted by Japanese guide book author Michelle Mackintosh and features Jane Sawyer, Jenna Lee and Zenta Tanaka. Together they discuss the benefits of embracing good design in daily life, what makes Japanese design iconic, and how they have embraced Japanese design and craft philosophies in their practices.
