DESIGN TALKS - Season 1 Episode 21 Wood
A full two-thirds of Japan is covered in lush forest. Trees and woods have played an integral role in Japanese society since time immemorial. It's said that the spirits and gods who made their homes in trees in ancient times continue to live in them to this day. This time we welcome designer Makoto Koizumi into the studio, as we take a look at a wide variety of woodwork. The beauty of wood can express warmth, tranquility, even nostalgia for simpler times. Join us as we explore the culture of woodworking, and discover what wood means to Japanese designers today.
