For the start of the year, we would like to bring to your attention these specially curated products by the design firm nottuo, Japan.
"drill" - is an experimental project whereby it's idea is in repeated training/drilling so as to achieve a more precise and valuable outcome.
A semi-DIY stool that you assemble and use. This stool (lauan plywood, basswood plywood) is part of a series of furniture made by assembling only three parts.
All parts of the Rn series are made of plywood components mechanically cut out by CNC routers and then handcrafted to precise dimensions one by one by Japanese woodworkers. Therefore, it can be assembled and disassembled as many times as needed for repeated use.
It is delivered unpainted, so you can use it as it is, or you can paint, oil, or varnish it to your liking. If you are using it at home, you can save space by taking it apart for storage or transportation when you move or don't use it. Originally conceived for use in restaurants, we commercialized it with drill project. If you like DIY, you can paint it with your original color and use it in your restaurant, or use it for display in your store.

mn Series - A vessel between art and tool.
The mn series was born through the process of making things with artists. It is a series of vessels with a characteristic high base, designed by the designer and made by the artist with his own hands. The designs are simple and industrial, but because they are not made with molds for mass production, but are made one at a time with hand techniques using the potter's wheel, each piece is a little unique.
