In the early years of elementary school, he learned the names and shapes of American cars, and around the same time, became influenced by rockabilly. As a middle school student, he fell in love with The Beatles, and in high school, he encountered Counterculture. In university, he formed a band, released an album, and he then said goodbye to Tokyo to return home. Upon seeing Charles Eames' chair, he felt like he had known it all along, which sparked his interest in transitioning from sound design to form design. In 1998, he started "organ." He continues because "it's fascinating and I can't stop."</span></p><p class="clear pt20"><em class="profile_name">出品者の想い</em>このオットマンは、ジオ・ポンティなどの作品も手がけたイタリアの工房 La Permanente Cantuで1957年に短期間だけ製作されたもので、製作を依頼したのはイタリアの著名な司祭だったとのこと。来歴も面白いのですが、それに輪をかけたようタピオヴァーラ節が充満しています。荒く編まれた革のベルトと、先をテーパートに絞ったビルマチーク材との組み合わせは、それだけでもうインパクトあり過ぎ。アフリカやペルシャ、いやインドなどのカルチャーに連なる"エキゾチックなエレガンス"があります。構造的不具合はありません。革の部分に経年による硬化が見受けられますが、しっかりしています。<br><br>This ottoman was produced for a brief period in 1957 at the La Permanente Cantu workshop in Italy, which also worked on pieces by designers like Gio Ponti. It was commissioned by a prominent Italian priest. The fascinating history of this ottoman is further enriched by the distinct Tapiovaara style that permeates it. The combination of roughly woven leather straps and the tapered ends of the Burmese teak wood already makes a striking impact on its own. There is an "exotic elegance" that resonates with cultures from Africa, Persia, and even India. There are no structural issues. While there is some stiffening observed in the leather due to aging, it remains sturdy.</p></p><br><br><font color=#00449b>*We would like to ask for your understanding on the following conditions to take part in the auction:<br>- All communications will be in Japanese including enquiries and documents related to terms and conditions.<br>- Shipments to addresses within Japan only.</font>
