English	The wave wall shelf is a product jointly developed with Plato Co., Ltd. Recycled artificial wood is a material made from a mixture of finely crushed recycled wood chips and resin. This product is carefully made by hand by the creator, taking advantage of the material's characteristic bending, connecting, twisting, and workability. Considering the undulations and twists that appear in the product's continuous curves and cubic curve composition as functions, we can prop up a book,hang a towel,stack cans,place a bottle,hang clothes,and display a flower vase. It is a shelf that can be used freely according to the shape.
Native	wave wall shelf は株式会社プラトと共同開発したプロダクトです。株式会社プラトは主に建築建材のウッドデッキなどで使われる再生人工木の加工に特化した会社です。再生人工木の加工技術を活かし主に建築素材として採用されてきた再生人工木を人々の生活の中に溶け込むように新たな価値を提案できるようなプロダクトを目指しました。再生人工木は細かく砕いた再生ウッドチップと樹脂を混ぜ合わせて出来ている素材です。素材の特徴である曲げたり繋げたり捻ったり素材の加工性の良さを活かして作り手によって手仕事で加工し丁寧に作られている商品です。プロダクトのインスピレーションは海の波やうねりなど日常をシンプルに解釈して曲線の連続と三次曲線の構成で現れる起伏と捻れを機能と考えて「本を立てかける」「タオルをかける」「缶を積む」「瓶を置く」「洋服を掛ける」「一輪挿しを飾る」などの使い方を形状に合わせた自由な棚です。
