Waon: A Fusion of Japanese Paper and Modern Lighting Design

Misaki Kiyuna introduces Waon, a lighting fixture that seamlessly incorporates the essence of Japanese paper into interior design. Inspired by the sound of fibers being pulled from water, the pleated shape of Waon evokes a musical scale, while the twisted curve expresses a unique tone.

With a focus on preserving the craftsmanship of Japanese paper, Waon's design reflects the intricate process of papermaking, intertwining fibers through vertical and horizontal movements. The fixture respects the charm of Japanese paper, leaving the ears intact as a testament to the artistry involved.

Utilizing an innovative approach, Waon utilizes an acrylic plate to secure the delicate Japanese paper, eliminating the need for a traditional frame. This design choice creates the illusion of the paper floating and also serves as the heat dissipation space for the light bulb.

Measuring at 1900mm in width, 290mm in depth, and 660mm in height, Waon is a striking addition to any interior space, offering a captivating interplay of light and form.

Waon is a testament to Misaki Kiyuna's dedication to creating designs that resonate with people's sensibilities. The fusion of traditional Japanese materials with modern design principles results in a lighting fixture that not only illuminates but also captivates with its unique form and functionality.
