Solitudes'
Solitude is a weightless presence, like mist that drifts in silence, or snowflakes falling in a grey-green forest, soft yet eternal.
In the tradition of Japanese aesthetics, solitude is not absence but a mirror—reflecting memory, impermanence, and the profound quiet within. It is in this silence that the world reveals its sharpest contours.
“Solitudes I,” our first piece, embodies this stillness through the Japanese concept of “vertical and horizontal,” where form and space converse in subtle harmony.
Chosen for its rare grain and soft luster, native Itaya maple carries the trace of time, each line a fleeting whisper. A bespoke Kyo-Yuzen textile, woven by master artisans, shifts in tone like the breath of nature.
Hand-carved using the ancient techniques of Edo joinery, and kissed with silver-leaf detailing, “Solitudes” is a singular creation—resistant to imitation, a vessel of memory.
A chair not simply to sit in—but to sit with, in quiet communion.
