“The Unknown Craftsman,” by Soetsu Yanagi, has been a seminal reference since its English publication in 1972. Yanagi articulates the Japanese perspective on art and beauty in everyday crafts, emphasizing the Mingei movement, which champions the spiritual and ethical principles in craftsmanship. Mingei celebrates ordinary, mass-produced objects by average people, in contrast to the highly refined works of professional artists, and serves as a response to Japan’s rapid industrialization, valuing artisanal over factory-made products.

We see invaluable charm in this 3P sofa that resonates well with the ideology of Soetsu Yanagi.
