“In recent days, I have intended to incorporate the natural phenomenon and the laws of nature into the idea of design and create works, which display originality. In collaboration with Mutina, I have pondered on designing tiles, which express the textures of material derived from the nature. My intention is not to manipulate the appearance of nature, but to create a design, which stirs one’s heart and imagination and remains deep in one’s memory. Phenomenon integrates small substances and produces both depth and width. Various expressions of Phenomenon, such as honeycombs, snow crystals, icicles, plant cells evoke one’s memory of the scenery in nature.” Tokujin Yoshioka
