Moku

Design by Imagebook

Wooden fish swimming in the sky… Normally, they float quietly in place, but when touched by a breeze, their propellers begin to turn gently, bringing a mood of calm and grace into daily life. Every piece of wood—from large furniture to small offcuts that might be discarded—originates from a single tree that grew over many years. To honor this gift from nature, we initiated a project to give new life to the offcuts produced during the making of our own wooden furniture.

The wooden elements of Moku are crafted from domestic ash, Japanese cherry, and oak offcuts. Each piece is carefully hand-sanded to reveal the beauty of the grain and finished with a natural finish that enhances the wood’s subtle hues and textures. The brass-cast base is hand-lacquered with urushi.
