Description
The Sokui project explores the traditional Japanese rice gluing technique, applying it to a furniture making process and bringing it to Europe for the first time. The furniture and accessories collection is sustainable and considerate towards wood and humans alike. Clean lines, timeless simplicity and perfect execution are the main goals connecting all the various products. Where rice glue was used, the joinery details have been highlighted.
