Overview
Curiosity - a Tokyo-based outfit specialising in interior and product design - is the creation of Frenchman Gwenael Nicolas and his Japanese partner Reiko Miyamoto, who set up the firm five years ago. An exquisite attention to detail distinguishes Curiosity's visually surprising retail environments for Issey Miyake, Levi's Dockers, Tag Heuer, and Takeo Kikuchi. Brands like Van Cleef & Arpels, Issey Miyake and Jean Paul Gaultier have called on the firm to create packaging for various scent collections. An interest in furniture has led the duo to come up with a number of pieces on their own initiative. The thirty projects featured here are fully illustrated and accompanied by technical information. An interview with the designers and contributions by Issey Miyake and Naoki Sakai of Waterstudio complete the monograph.Book Details
