It’s not a typical sofa. Instead, picture the minimal lines of tatami mat platforms hovering above the ground on bases of temple-inspired cedar wood joinery, with horizontal futon-like cushions in a striped textile once favoured by samurai. Time & Style, the Japanese manufacturer renowned for its contemporary interior products rooted in craftsmanship and natural materials, is delving deeper into its roots with its latest collection.
Unveiled during Milan Design Week 2024, the collection taps into a wealth of craftsmanship across Japan – from weavers and woodcarvers to futon makers – resulting in interior pieces that balance its Japanese DNA with a clean contemporary aesthetic for modern lifestyles.
