Kisho Kurokawa (Furnishings)















Back to our old friend Kisho again for a look at his small selection of furnishings . They stay true to his design principles by being very precise and detailed whilst being honest and not trying to cover up the materials used to make them.

I like their clean cut minimal feel but on a second glance I don't believe that designs like these would really be at home on a space station. They feel too brittle and fragile as well as seeming to stylish and austere. They don't really seem capable of being either something one would want to relax with after a trying day at the station nor something than may not be comfy but would at least save space and money. After seeing a photo of what I'm about to blog about next, I realised what these furnishings were lacking.
