Katachi - Contemporary Japanese Product Design

by Schneider, Carsten 16 March 2010 in Better Things To Do

The Bauhaus-Archiv Berlin shows 100 examples of contemporary Japanese product design - modern interpretations of traditional items. Many are crafted from equally traditional materials, using techniques perfected over centuries, like these lacquer ware bowls.

Meyer, Miller, Smith.

Head. Hands. Heart. We believe that there is a real connection between craftsmanship and communication.

As information and intelligence becomes the domain of computers, society will place more value on the one human ability that cannot be automated: Emotions.

People want to experience beauty, enjoy one’s work, feel passion, they want to interact with each other. We all want.

That’s why we believe that the future of brands is interaction, not commodity. It’s not something you buy, but something you participate in.
