JAPAN FORM
JAPAN FORM is a Stockholm–based curatorial platform founded in 2024 by interior and furniture designer Hironori Tsukue and Reiko Tsukue. The platform introduces contemporary Japanese craftsmanship to the European market, focusing on material precision and functional clarity. JAPAN FORM is the exclusive European representative of porcelain lighting artist Hirotaka Tobimatsu. Born in Saga, Japan, he creates sculptural porcelain lighting that reinterprets early 20th–century opal glass forms. Each piece is hand–cast and carefully finished, offering soft light and architectural presence.
JAPAN FORM presents Hirotaka Tobimatsu's 'Vessel of Light', featuring meticulously crafted porcelain lampshades. These lampshades blend seamlessly into the room like alabaster when unlit, and emit a soft, warm glow when lit. Originally from Saga, a historic centre of porcelain production in Japan, and now based in Tokyo, Tobimatsu draws inspiration from Western milk glass lampshades of the 1920s, bridging traditions in his craft. The collection comprises 32 intricately designed and customisable models, around 20 of which will be on display. Combining traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern aesthetics, these sophisticated lampshades bring elegance and poetry to any space, private or public, creating a serene and welcoming ambience.
