Kumiko Cabinet Low by Staffan Holm Kumiko Cabinet Low - designed by Staffan Holm - Ariake In Japan we noticed the very strong visual aspect of using Kumiko, Screens that can be ornamental but also used as privacy screens in restaurants. Inspired by the traditional Japanese kumiko screen-craftsmanship, these cabinets combine semi see through screens and a very well crafted cabinet to create an interesting composition and light placed inside will give a warm feeling to the room making the whole cabinet into a lamp of sorts. Ariake is a furniture brand founded by Legnatec and Hirata Chair, two factories from the furniture producing town of Morodomi in Saga prefecture, Japan. Ariake is named after the Ariake Sea in Southern Japan and also means "daybreak" in Japanese symbolizing a new chapter for its founding manufacturers: Legnatec and Hirata Chair Manufacture Co. which have been producing furniture in Japan for over 40 years. It is Ariake's philosophy that furniture is made for social situations where people live, work and eat together. The Ariake brand was created during two intensive workshops in Morodomi where furniture designers, art directors, craftsmen and photographers lived, worked and ate together to shape and generate a collective energy and mutual trust that would define the soul of the brand. The products made by Ariake is inspired by the spirituality of Japanese culture and urban living contexts which is seen in the combination of handmade- and machine-created products. Each Ariake collection piece is 100% made in Saga, Japan by Hirata Chair and Legnatec, producers of Japanese furniture since more than 40 years.
