Philippe Tabet produces the Fushimi family of furniture, closely linked to the Inari series, inspired by one of Kyoto’s most important sacred places: the Fushimi Inari temple.‎ The simplicity and harmony of these architectural elements so dear to Japanese culture struck a chord with the designer, who has chosen to echo the structure, traditionally formed of two vertical columns supporting a horizontal post on top.‎ As a reinterpretation of this arrangement on a much smaller scale, Fushimi makes it the key feature of its design.‎ Solid ash wood is the hero of each piece, lovingly milled and turned so that there are no sharp edges, instead displaying a delicate tactility.‎ The same meticulous care is also evident in the joints, softly delineated to ensure the lines flow with unbroken continuity and connect the parts for a harmoniously seamless look.‎ Symmetry, balance, elegance and formal minimalism form the underlying theme of Fushimi, which effectively conveys an idea of lightness and essentiality.‎
