15 Japanese Furniture Designs

Japanese furniture designs have been steadily increasing in abundance on the market. As Eastern cultures become more pronounced, many designers — both local and foreign, begin to bring culturally infused stylistics to the forefront.

Products in this category often mix minimalist aesthetics with unparallel functionality. A big component of the Eastern-informed collections is also packability. An example of a product that embraces the latter quality would be Hong Kong-based Studio Adjective's three-legged Tripodal stool, which is easy-to-assemble and quite adaptable. For those who favor tranquility in other forms, Aquatica boasts its own Japanese furniture design in the shape of an ultra-relaxing and neck-deep heated bathtub, Ryan Taylor puts forth a traditional Taiko-inspired table, and Hugh Miller spotlights an intricate handmade cabinet that has been stained with Japanese calligraphy ink.
