Streaming hasn't killed physical media. It's made us crave it more. CDs are back in rotation, showing up in record stores, apartments, and design studios with a renewed sense of purpose.

Fractal 9 began not as a formal design project but as a response to a simple, everyday need, aiming to create something meaningful in an empty corner.

Pamela Anderson's new wicker furniture collection, 'The Sentimentalist,' for Olive Ateliers is a reflection of her love for gardening and outdoor living, showcasing her design sensibilities.

The handle, made of frosted silicone with a clean, pill-shaped profile, changes its physical firmness based on the freshness of the food stored inside the refrigerator. When everything's fine in there, the handle feels firm to the touch. When something is going bad, it softens.

KITONOKO is a community-oriented complex located in a suburban commercial district, conceived as a place where architecture quietly connects people, work, and everyday life. Surrounded by large-scale retail and roadside developments, the project seeks to introduce a more human-scaled, open, and approachable environment within a typically car-oriented context. Rather than operating as a closed commercial facility, the building encourages local residents, visitors, and staff to naturally intersect through spatial openness and continuity.

When empty, it still looks complete, adding subtle presence to a shelf or desk.
