The Japanese phrase "hodo-hodo" has a rich history, dating back to ancient times. When contemporary designer Taku Satoh incorporates this phrase into his work, it carries a profound meaning: "just enough." Hodo-hodo design embodies a deliberate restraint, creating space for individuals to interact with objects in their own unique ways. In a world driven by consumerism, Satoh has built an illustrious career by embracing this philosophy, creating iconic designs in fashion, food, and architecture. His ideas resonate not only with professional designers but with anyone seeking to navigate the world with greater mindfulness.
Within this concise yet impactful book, Satoh elucidates his philosophy through tangible examples, ranging from the aesthetic of a weathered ramen shop to a rooftop playground inspired by onomatopoeia. He encourages readers to appreciate the ordinary and the everyday, questioning the allure of convenience. Satoh's message is rooted in the past yet seamlessly relevant to our contemporary times, urging us to slow down, engage more deeply, and find beauty in the simplest of things.
Through his designs and writings, Taku Satoh inspires us to reevaluate our relationship with the world around us and to seek out the extraordinary in the ordinary. Hodo-hodo design is a testament to the power of simplicity and the importance of mindful living.
