A Space Away from the Everyday Rush
On light, favourite objects, and the quiet pleasure of everyday life.
The first time we stepped inside, we fell in love with the natural light, the openness of the space, and the high ceilings.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the greenery outside seems to extend naturally into the room. The morning light feels soft and gentle, while in the afternoon, sunlight slowly moves across the walls, furniture, and familiar objects. As the hours pass, the same space seems to take on a different expression.
There’s something about being here that naturally makes you slow down.
Make a cup of coffee and sit by the window for a while. Read a few pages of a book, or choose a few stems and arrange them in a Still Life Vase. Nothing needs to be planned. It’s simply about leaving a little time in the day with nowhere you need to be.
Sometimes we find ourselves thinking that what makes us truly love a space isn’t just the furniture or the way it is arranged, but the traces of everyday life that slowly become part of it.
A favourite chair you always return to, a plant thriving by the window, something brought home from a journey, or an object you’ve lived with for years and still love. Over time, these things quietly become part of what makes a place feel like home.
Bringing a Little of Nature Indoors
We have always looked to nature for inspiration.
The direction of a bird’s wings in flight, a chipmunk pausing to look around, or a meerkat curiously peeking out. Often, it is these brief, easily overlooked gestures and expressions that stay with us the most.
Through our work, we try to capture these fleeting moments, bringing the presence and character of nature into everyday life in a different way.
Once they enter a space, they seem to find places of their own.
Migrant birds take flight across the wall, their shadows shifting as the sunlight moves. Chipmunk pauses between books and greenery, as if quietly observing the room. Meerkat peeks out from the corner of a table, looking as though it might move again at any moment.
This is something we have always loved about our work.
When the same haoshi piece enters a different home, surrounded by different furniture, plants, light, and the lives being lived around it, we often discover something we hadn’t noticed before. Even a familiar piece can seem to take on a new expression.
The same is true of the Still Life Vase.
We love that it doesn’t need to be filled with a large bouquet. Sometimes a single branch, or a flower that appears only for a particular season, is enough. As flowers bloom and branches unfold, even a quiet corner begins to feel a little different.
We’ve always believed that a home doesn’t need to be filled with too much.
Make time for the life you love.
