ARIAKE
Ariake is a Japanese furniture brand founded by Legnatec and Hirata Chair, two manufacturers from Morodomi, Saga Prefecture, each with over four decades of craft heritage. The brand takes its name from the Ariake Sea; "ariake" also means daybreak, marking a new chapter for its founding makers. Developed under the creative direction of Gabriel Tan, the collection brings together Morodomi's craftsmen and an international roster of designers, with the aim of creating new Japanese design icons. Each piece balances delicacy with structural precision, combining hand and machine production in equal measure.
"The House of Making" is a collective exhibition by Ariake, Ladies & Gentlemen Studio, Origin Made, Parachilna, and Zimmer+Rohde, five craft-focused brands brought together at the historic Asia House for 3daysofdesign. Modern life is surrounded by finished things: objects arrive complete and resolved, their histories of trial and transformation invisible. This exhibition is an invitation behind the curtain — beyond the finished object to reveal the creative process, with sketches, prototypes, materials, and tools of the trade, narrating the journey from idea to form. It is part showcase, part love letter to artistry and craft.
