Abstract

In a space of only 5 years Oki Sato has left his mark as a freelance designer the world over, winning numerous awards. In 2002 he founded his design company called Nendo, which means clay in Japanese. He chose this image because clay is flexible, moldable and malleable. Using a thorough thought process in each of his projects Nendo ensures that the designs remain unique and interesting, never lacking a touch of humour. After all it is through simplicity that we can reach enlightenment. This monograph features not only his projects for Kenzo, Capellini and Swedese but also Nendo's sophisticated architectural projects, his innovative furniture designs and his creative interiors. It introduces stylish product designs and state-of-the-art graphic design. An index with project and contact information on Nendo is enclosed. This publication includes Japanese text.

Abstract

Oki Sato founded nendo in Tokyo in 2002. Since then, it has become one of the most sought-after design studios worldwide. The name nendo is Japanese for modeling clay. It is indicative of the studio’s playful, yet rational approach. Nendo: 10/10 is a comprehensive monograph of the studio’s work. Each of the book’s ten chapters showcases one of nendo’s design principles. Chapters explore, for example, nendo’s compelling approach to multiplying, linking, concealing, balancing, magnifying, and folding. Featured projects include vibrant store concepts and mystically inspired exhibition spaces as well as sculptural furniture pieces, home accessories, and design objects. Nendo’s impressively clear, yet intriguingly sophisticated work not only represents the epitome of contemporary design from Japan, but also sets the tone for design’s future on the global scene.
