Leon Ransmeier
While researching the project’s Japanese cultural backdrop, New York-based designer Leon Ransmeier came upon the concept for ‘Perceptible Beauty.’ Focusing on Japanese utensils whose very shape and feel lets the user appreciate their inherent beauty when picked up, he adopted a design approach that would also make the modern user yearn to physically hold them. As one of Ransmeier’s coffee pots, teapots, vases or mugs sits snugly in your hand, you will soon become aware of the finely-crafted swell of the item created with high-grade moulding technology.
