Furikake Lantern (Price available on request)
Dimensions 120 x 16 x 15 cm
The modular “Furikake lanterns” are available in both suspended and wall-mounted versions. In collaboration with Flavia Brändle, Kobayashi embarked on an exploration of the technique of bending wood by precisely cutting it with a Japanese saw at predetermined positions. Given Brändle’s interest in modularity and systems, the duo experimented with various combinations and mounting directions, introducing a dynamic element to the project.
Kobayashi added a touch of vibrancy reminiscent of the Japanese culinary tradition, where pure rice is transformed into a delightful dish with the addition of Furikake flakes. Much like the colorful sprinkles on the Soji Paper which elevate the aesthetics the Furikake Lanterns.
