Tommy Taruiguchi - Engineers Stay Young While They Have Dreams

Handcrafted box with folding lid containing unbound text block of Toyota's engineer Mr. Tommy Taruighuchi's annotations and thoughts about engineering and management.

The contrast between white and slightly red elements is a reference to the minimalistic style that characterized the oriental aesthetic and the colors of the Japanese flag. The structure of the box plays with empty and full space recalling the “Ma”, a Japanese aesthetic, philosophical, and artistic concept that considers the “void” a presence with a sense of existing as well as the “full”.
