Craft x Tech Tokai EditionYear: 2026
Created in collaboration with Yohei Ito of Fudogama Kiln for the Tokai Edition of Craft x Tech.
Fushi is a collection of functional objects built from a system of modular ceramic forms. Each module is designed to precise tolerances then manufactured using the Mino Yaki method, a tradition rooted in Gifu Prefecture. Historically the domain of tableware, Fushi reaches into new typologies entirely, furniture and lighting, through the logic of assembly over singular fabrication.
The modules are identical. Their arrangement is held by a technical internal armature. A console and a lamp emerge from the same component, scaled and configured differently, each completed by a unifying element in a contrasting material.
Industrial control sits in conflict with the ancient and wilful Oribe glaze. Each identical module is thrown into chaos through the random reactions of the fired surface, becoming unique and unpredictable. Fushi celebrates this tension between the random and the perfect.
