Product description

Time & Style determined the shelf dimensions using shakkan-ho, an ancient Japanese measurement system based on body measurement. Each culture has its own standards for length and weight that correspond to body shapes and lifestyles, derived from a long history. In Japan, the shakkan-ho system has been passed down for centuries, but has been replaced in most cases by the metric system. Interestingly, the shakkan-ho system is still widely used in Japan for units related to architecture and several other aspects of everyday life, including units of length "sun" and "shaku" and units of "tsubo" and "chou". ' area units. In a design based on these ancient ideas, this cabinet has subtle expressions of Japanese consciousness and emotion.

Inspired by the graceful skyscraper, the vertical layer literally highlights the vertical panels, offsetting the horizontal shelf boards. Once the books are placed, this open cabinet with an elusive presence disappears and reappears depending on the viewing angle.
