PD: I would like to ask you about Japanese design since we have been working as an agent in the Japanese market. What do you think about Japanese design? Have you found anything interesting in it?
AW: I don't know so much about contemporary Japanese design. I am not good at searching the internet (laughs). When I think of Japan, I think more of traditional design, such as traditional porcelain, which I always admire. Probably what I think more of is the architecture. I like the architecture very much, such as Ando, Isozaki, and Shigeru Ban.
monocose.com values quality, tradition and
locality. We wish to
preserve and encourage the specificity of local, exclusive design.
Locality entails that we as consumers get closer to the origin of the
products. Highly skilled craftsmen create each artifact by hand to
achieve perfection.
