Obi is a collection of residential furniture pieces created with the objective of continuing cultural fusion. The sofa, coffee table, and bench are a combination of Eastern and Western design elements, lifestyles, and philosophies. The belts that secure the upholstery are a key design element. My goal with this collection was to evoke feelings of comfort and familiarity in people of various cultural backgrounds. I also hope to continue cross-cultural conversations in design and foster a broader sensibility in customers.
