Artist's Story

Composed of the immensely talented architect Yang Hen Chen and the brilliant weaving & textile designer Noriko Tsuiki, this team is creating a catalyst for craft revitalization with their work in a variety of natural materials, including wood, bamboo, and textiles.

Tsuiki is a master craftsperson who revived traditional Kokura-ori weaving in the 1980s, helping bring back the dense weave with the high, leather-like gloss that was once the chosen fabric for samurai hakama trousers.

Chen is an innovative architect with a visionary ability to reimagine the relationship between traditional crafts and interior architectural settings. Together, their team is changing the design landscape as they incorporate newly interpreted forms of traditional crafts into contemporary architecture and interior settings.
