We must keep our eyes on the essence of objects when designing furniture, so that we do not unfailingly confuse products that should be new with those that should be there. We thus designed the cabinet to have a simple structure without using functional hardware. We also employed old-fashioned joints even for the kumite of each drawer. We wanted to show the accumulation of detailed work as the basic modality of products. “We make things in a careful manner,” which is easy to say, but it requires substantial time, energy, and a sense of purpose to put our ideas into action. While beautiful products with excellent design are good, we can create products that have the spirit of careful craftsmanship, if we have the purpose of making products that people cherish with affection for many years.
This large cabinet has 40 large A3-sized drawers. It is up to the user how to use them. Users can freely store documents, collections, records, photographs, contract papers, albums, and other valuable items. It is our pleasure to create products while visualizing how our furniture will be used in daily life and work.
