Japanese aesthetics and its design philosophy

- What dwells in silence -

The Japanese objects we value at Casa TSUGU have a particular beauty.
It is not an ostentatious or decorative beauty, but something more subtle.
A bowl with a slight deformation, a glaze with color variations, a visible wood grain.
They are not perfect, and that is precisely why they move us.

This sensitivity is called wabi-sabi .
It is a Japanese aesthetic vision that appreciates the passage of time, imperfection and nature.
A silent, modest and profound beauty, which manifests itself in everyday objects.

There is also the concept of yohaku , the art of emptiness, in Japanese design.
Make space, eliminate the superfluous, and find beauty even in what is unseen.
This emptiness gives respite, calm, and allows the essential to shine.

At Casa TSUGU, we honor this Japanese sensibility.
We value not only the form of objects, but also the thought behind them and the dedication of those who create them.
We want to share with you that small, silent joy that can be found in everyday life.
