NENDO

SINKING ABOUT FURNITURE



"Furniture sinking into the floor. A chair with one sinking leg, and a sofa sinking backwards, for example. It may lose its original function, but we can always find a different way of usage. We'd like to make you rethink about the relationship between function and form." -Nendo





Giving people a small ≪ ! ≫ moment. There are so many small ≪ ! ≫ moments hidden in our everyday. But we don’t recognize them.and even when we do recognize them, we tend to unconsciously reset our minds and forget what we’ve seen. But we believe these small ≪ ! ≫ moments are what make our days sointeresting, so rich. That’s why we want to reconstitute the everyday by collecting andreshaping them into something that’s easy to understand. We’d like the people who’ve encountered nendo’s designs to feel these small ≪ ! ≫ moments intuitively.That’s Nendo’s job.
