Origin of Cool: Japan

The Snow by Tokujin Yoshioka
 
Japanese designer Tokujin Yoshioka is interested in recreating the senses connected to nature. In this installation he has done exactly that. Feathers being pushed about via an air vent reproduce that perfect snowy winter day inside the Mori Art Museum, Tokyo.
The sunlight, soft breeze, and the harmony that leaves, create the variety of the essence in the nature touches our emotions. I intend not to reproduce them, but to pick the element that inspires our heart and integrate it into the design.”
- Tokujin Yoshioka
