Hara Kenya "White One Hundred"

About the productJapanese

--I once wrote that there is no such thing as white, there is only the sensitivity to feel white. If white is not a color but the sensitivity or psychology that feels white, then it is natural to try to approach white by connecting these phenomena.

In his book "White" (published by Chuokoron-Shinsha in 2008), the author uses "white" as a keyword to talk about the "emptiness" that is latent in Japanese aesthetics - an empty, empty space. This is also a feeling that is connected to the core of the author's own design. In this book, "White 100," he discusses the concept of "white" by citing 100 examples of white as more concrete phenomena. Through various examples of white, such as the tools and food we come into contact with in our daily lives, things drawn from our memories, the white in Japanese culture, and the feelings we have in our work, the author's ideas on design emerge. This is the final volume on the subject of "white" that he has been ruminating on for 10 years since his previous book.
