New at OEN Shop – Brassware by Takeo Suhara of Yuta Craft
Just as the different clays in pottery bring a sense of depth and mystery, so does the weight and purity of a metal. I haven’t really discussed Takeo Suhara’s work in much detail due to the popularity of them. These beautiful brass utensils under his studio name ‘Yuta Craft’ really d
New at OEN Shop – Glassware by Rie Furukawa of matsurica
There’s something mesmerising about flat matte tones and how they have the ability to draw the eye in. Those shiny surfaces are nice, but it’s often hard to create a strong bond with an object that reflects in such a manner. Rie Furukawa of matsurica, a Japanese glass working studio in T
New at OEN Shop – Lighting by Japanese Studio Y.S.M PRODUCTS
Despite the lack of lighting in our shop it’s one of the most interesting areas of design in my opinion. The way light strikes an object ultimately plays with our overall perception, dictating the way we perceive and interact with it. I really enjoyed the work of Y.S.M PRODUCTS in Japan and I

New at OEN Shop – Bold Geometric Prints by Formworks Studio
We just wanted to share a quick update to our range of framed prints by talented British designer Jon Llewelyn who founded his project Formworks Studio in 2016.

New at OEN Shop – Ceramic Hanging Mobiles by Miki Furusho
Japanese ceramic artist Miki Furusho has mixed her talent as a potter with her eye for good design in this new hanging mobile/chime series. Furusho is known for her use of a special clay dug in the Izu Peninsula in Japan. This clay has a particular earthy feel that really does sing ‘wabi sabi’ a
