About Mass Series Sumi Limited Møbelkollektion
Mass Series Sumi Limited er en møbelkollektion, der omfatter en spisestol, en loungestol, et sofabord, to skamler og et stumtjener-stativ. Hvert stykke kombinerer en stålramme med generøst høvlet cedertræ fra gamle træer. Cedertræet forkulles ved en traditionel metode, der forbedrer holdbarheden og fremhæver de markante åretegninger, hvilket skaber en blank sort overflade med en sjælden tekstur. Den mørke finish refererer til Noyaki, afbrændingen af græsarealerne i Aso-området, hvor mennesker og natur lever side om side. Serien er begrænset til 25 enheder om året.

Rather than just making products, Brand came about with an ambition to protect and preserve the landscape and natural resources that communities cherished and harness it for future generations.
