Vases

Designer : Teruhiro Yanagihara

A vase that plays with perception, engaging both our expectations and the natural behavior of flowers. An archetypal form is divided into individual segments that can be shifted and rearranged. At first glance, this creates a moment of surprise: we expect the water to escape. Yet in reality, the vase continues to hold water, keeping flowers fresh and vibrant.

With simple means, the design reveals how deeply we trust our perception to reflect truth.
Water is contained only in the lowest section, echoing the principles of Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement.
