In collaboration with Singapore-based design company, Industry+ and design collective, Outofstock, NAFA is hosting the Singapore leg and debut of this touring exhibition showcasing the life and works of prolific designer, Sori Yanagi. Featuring prototypes of his highly acclaimed designs such as the iconic Butterfly Stool and the Elephant Stool, this exhibition also presents the vast repertoire of Yanagi-san’s designs from public sculpture and bridges to the Olympic Torch as well as his series of anonymous designs in prints. Sharing his philosophy and design principles, the exhibition highlights the minimalism and simplicity Yanagi emphasised in his designs as well as the form and function of his constructions that have assimilated harmoniously into our common use, popular culture and everyday life.
