Forêt by ODS/Oniki Design Studio

"Kumiko" is a traditional Japanese technique that involves assembling wood into geometric patterns without using nails. The intricate patterns are created by crafting grooves and joints into thinly sliced pieces of wood, which are then precisely fitted together. The furniture series named "Forêt" was born from the desire to explore new forms that blend this Kumiko technique with modern design sensibilities. Developed in collaboration with Abe Kogyo Co., Ltd., a company dedicated to the manufacturing and sale of high-quality wooden fittings, this series aims to deliver authenticity to the world.
