KOBO ST-Shelf
by Ishinomaki
The KOBO ST-Shelf has a simple structure made of plywood and steel; unfrivolous in its design, it leaves a soft, pleasant impression. The shelves are laminated, accompanying books, and other objects placed on it with a light touch. The detailing of the steel legs is shared by the KOBO ST-Desk, KOBO ST-Table, and other products. When paired with other similar products, one can feel the space being imbued with a sense of unity.
KOBO ST-SHELF は、積層合板とスチール材で構成したシンプルで無駄のない構造で軽やかな印象を与えます。脚部などのディテールは、KOBO ST-DESK、KOBO ST-TABLEと共通するもの。セットでお使いいただくと、シンプルな統一感が生まれます。

KEIJI ASHIZAWA 芦沢啓治
Keiji Ashizawa (b. 1973) lives and works in Tokyo, Japan. After graduating from Yokohama University School of Architecture in 1995, Ashizawa spent the first ten years of his career working as both an architect and steel fabricator. The unique skills and experience gained throughout these early years, including a valued understanding of metals, continue to influence his approach to design. Keiji Ashizawa presents work of ‘honest’ design – simple yet refined, thoughtful, and of a light manner – derived naturally through the process of attempting to maximise the potential of each material and its function. He excels in applying these ideas to projects of various scales, from furniture and lighting design to architecture and exhibition design. His furniture and lighting have been exhibited internationally since 2001. In 2011, Ashizawa was awarded a ‘Special Award’ by the Japan Institute of Design for his principal participation in the inception of Ishinomaki Laboratory – a DIY furniture workshop established in Ishinomaki city, Japan, after it was devastated by the tsunami triggered by the Great East Japan Earthquake.
