His designs are organic, minimalistic, and intuitive, which is closest to my design aesthetics and what I’d hope to do in future. Born in Yamanashi Prefecture in 1956, Fukasawa has been described by Bloomberg Businessweek as one of the world’s most influential designers. Fukasawa is a member of MUJI’s advisory board and has designed products ranging from kitchen appliances to ready-constructed cabins for getaways.
