Leif.designpark
Japan

Leif.designpark, a Japan-based design studio consisting of Takashi Ueno, Mamoru Naito and Keizaburo Honda, has been designing products in a variety of natural materials, with a specific emphasis on wood since 2006. Leif.designpark holds monozukuri (the ar

t of traditional craftsmanship) in high esteem, and values the warm, playful relationship between a product and the user, as well as the comfort of the space where the two enjoy interaction. Their aesthetic is a result of applying monozukuri to the constr

uction of modern designs to give the products a connection to traditional Japanese culture. The team works on a range of projects including interiors, art and product design. Their designs convey an artistic use of natural materials in sensuous forms.
