This special project of Kustaa Saksi will see Saksi creating four print designs for Furoshiki, a Japanese wrapping cloth that was traditionally used for transporting and protecting the owner's clothes at the bath house.
Furoshiki has since been used in a variety of ways, doubling up as a decoration for gifts, Bento/lunch box carriers, table mats, or as attractive wine bottle carriers. The possibilities of Furoshiki are endless.

This versatile and beautiful wrapping clothes have come back into style with Japan's growing concern for the impact of waste on the environment, these fun (they can be wrapped in a myriad of ways) and beautiful cloths have since become a replacement of the plastic bag for many, greatly reducing waste.
Saski's psychedelic and groovy illustrations, applied on Furoshiki will make being environmentally conscious something to revel in. These four Saksi Furoshiki designs will only come in a limited run of 50 pieces each, complete with a guide book of how to creatively transform the cloth into carrier for all your different purposes. |
