GRAVIMORPH

GRAVIMORPH is a coined word combining two words : gravitation and morphology. It means "a substance that moves by gravity". When the combination (or encounter) of two simplified structures was affected by the power, it creates simple and unique movements and comfortable tones. Touch, feel and enjoy the beautiful motion and sound.

Moss series
SPINDLE featuring Sakamoto

We are pleased to announce the completion of our first collaboration with "nogaaru" Naomi Sakamoto, a moss artist based in Yamaguchi City, JAPAN. The item is a premium series SPINDLE -Black- with natural moss "Skandia Moss".

She added a soft forest image to the GRAVIMORPH, which is composed of simple straight lines and spherical surfaces in gentle colors. The fluffy, natural texture of moss blends with the intricate machined surface to create a unique and mysterious item. Instead of hiding all of the machined cross sections, she dared to leave some of them, expressing the imperfection (irregularity) that Japanese people have loved since ancient times. 

The Moss series is made-to-order.

Moss Artist
Naomi Sakamoto

Proposal for a life with a sense of nature.
She remember picking flowers on the street and bringing them home with me when she was a child...
She became an artist when she was a child, picking the beautiful flowers that grew in the city.

In 2021, she launched a moss art brand, MOSSY Landscape Art by nogaaru. She proposes a new type of art that combines the charms of both moss and machining.

"Relaxation" has had a high priority in Japanese culture since ancient times.

Shishi-odoshi water games
A water feature made out of bamboo, was originally used to keep deer and wild boar from to keep out of the fields. The Shishi-odoshi moves through the power of the water; the Motion appears to be constant, but is in fact erratic. In Japanese gardens they are very popular and their graceful movements and sounds create a relaxing atmosphere.
Wind chimes
In the Heian period (794-1185) wind chimes were used by nobles to ward off evil and for divination. In the Edo period (1603-1868) wind chimes made of glass, which was very expensive at the time, were invented, which delighted people with their movement in the wind and their pleasant sound.

A world without quid pro quo is beautiful. From the intentionality, it is gravity. Surrender to sight and hearing.
