INSPIRATION

Sher has a fascination for this wonderful country since her trip to Japan in 1990. She has always been intrigued by their minimalistic designs, wabi sabi aesthetics and way of life. This has been strengthened by her Asian roots; born in Indonesia, the Emerald of the Equator, her ancestors descended from China, her DNA ‘evolved’ in the Land of the Rising Sun, Japan.

PHILOSOPHY

Wabi Sabi is an ancient Japanese philosophy centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection, natural growth and decay. A crack in a ceramic bowl, a worn wooden hallway. Those signs of use are a story, symbolising the passage of time and loving use. Wabi sabi is about appreciating nature, natural materials like wood and stone, materials that age well.
